LifeCare EMS has the largest geographical Primary Service Area (PSA) for ambulance services in the State of Minnesota consisting of a population base of 8,000 residents and visitors, covering over 3,000 square miles.

Operating 24-hour service, LifeCare EMS provides high quality pre-hospital care to our patients for emergency calls, and during inter-facility transport between LifeCare Medical Center and area tertiary care centers equipped and staffed to provide a higher designation of care. Paramedics are included on every call and each ambulance is stocked with cutting-edge medical equipment plus GPS systems that increase dispatch and efficiency during times when every second counts.

Advanced Life Support (ALS) level care is also available for inter-facility medical transfers, which are staffed by a Paramedic or Registered Nurse.

Our team is committed to providing excellent care to patients in an emergency situation or when a friend or family member is in need of comforting, non-emergency, medical care and transportation.
