Thank you for considering donating to the Northern Virginia Emergency Medical Services Council. Your generous donation provides vital support to Northern Virginia's regional EMS system.
Northern Virginia Emergency Medical Services Council was established in 1980 and is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit public agency incorporated in the Commonwealth of Virginia and one of 11 Regional EMS Councils that serve specific geographic areas of the Commonwealth. The Council is charged with developing and implementing an efficient and effective regional emergency medical services delivery system.
Our mission is to improve emergency medical care in Northern Virginia, and we are an integral part of Virginia’s comprehensive EMS system, collaborating with the office of EMS, local government officials, physicians, hospitals, and EMS agencies to plan and coordinate EMS activities at the regional level to promote quality of care within Planning District 8.
The Northern Virginia region has a population of over 3.1 million and includes the counties of Arlington, Fairfax, Loudoun, and Prince William; the cities of Alexandria, Fairfax, Falls Church, Manassas, and Manassas Park; and the Metro Washington Airports Authority (Reagan National and Washington Dulles International Airports), the Pentagon and other Federal and state agencies, numerous corporate headquarters, and endless highways and commuter routes. This 1,338 square mile region extends from very urban to very rural areas. Our region is considered part of the National Capital Region and interacts daily with the EMS systems in Washington, DC, and Maryland.
Providing coordination and oversight to this very large and complex EMS system is the Northern Virginia Emergency Medical Services Council.
Your generous donations make a difference, and we appreciate your support. Your donation may be directed to specific programs of service such as the Stroke Smart Initiative and EMS Whole Blood Program if you choose. You will be able to designate those programs in the donation process.
