Ambulance

Forks Ambulance serves the City of Forks and La Push, and provides ambulance and rescue coverage for West Clallam County into West Jefferson County.  We respond to Olympic Corrections Center and all access points to the rivers, trails, and back roads and everything in between these areas. A rough estimate that includes our response area and where we respond for mutual aid is over 900 square miles.

All EMT’s at Forks Ambulance are state licensed and certified through a rigorous training program and held to the same standards of education and training as required by state law.  Forks Ambulance has a combination of both full-time and per diem EMT’s.  The volunteer EMT program is known as the Ray Ellis Memorial Volunteer Ambulance Corps (REMVAC) and has been serving the community for over 60 years. REMVAC, in conjunction with West Olympic Peninsula EMS Council provides the initial EMT training and ongoing education via funding from the North West Region EMS council.
