Family. Friends. Community.

We care

Yankton County EMS provides around-the-clock, paramedic-level ambulance services to Yankton and the surrounding communities. In addition to 911 response, we offer various medical transport services and educational opportunities and proudly engage in community outreach.

Keeping the lines of communication open

Recent discussions at Yankton County Commission Meetings about alternative funding options have raised a few questions throughout the community. Find answers in the ambulance comparison presentation from July 2024.

We're trying to close that (financial) gap.
