Get Involved

lvacThe Lancaster Volunteer Ambulance Corps is always seeking new members. LVAC responds to more than 3,500 emergencies annually and we couldn’t do it without the commitment and dedication of our volunteers.

Volunteering in the EMS field is very rewarding. Our members come from many different backgrounds. As volunteers, we give our time and skills so that our community may benefit.

Training, equipment and uniforms are provided. Prior experience in emergency medicine is not required but helpful. We welcome candidates interested in becoming a driver or dispatcher or who hold a valid emergency medical technician or paramedic card in New York State.

By becoming a member of the first volunteer ambulance service in Western New York, you join a proud tradition of community service that dates back to 1953. We ask that you volunteer at least 16 hours of squad time a month, attend regular training sessions and assist during special events.

To apply for membership, please fill out an application and background check release form.

Please send the completed application and consent form to:
