When people think of an ambulance, they think of danger and worry. They think of pain and suffering. While those emotions may represent some of the events that happen in an ambulance, many people experience feelings of joy, safety, and comfort because of the brave people who drive and work in that ambulance. That feeling of safety is what MedStar strives to create. We want those we serve to know that they’re in good hands, and they have no need to worry.
That’s why we pride ourselves on being the best, not just in service, but in customer satisfaction and safety. Our teams work hard to make sure that we create that feeling of safety and security on every single ambulance ride, no matter how long or short it may be. We believe that being the best includes making sure every person we service walks away feeling like they were taken care of to the best of our ability.
Every job has the opportunity to serve the community in some small form. Some jobs more so than others. These special jobs demand a certain kind of person, a certain caring heart. Giving back to the community creates a special bond between all people living there, and it is a great way to learn more about others to better serve them. Finding a job that fulfills this desire can be difficult. For those who want to make a permanent, lasting impact on their communities, medical services is a wonderful choice.
Medical care is all about taking care of the community. For the Melehov brothers, that mission comes first. They want to do more than just provide services to the greater Massachusetts area, they want to enrich the lives of everyone living nearby. Taking care of your neighbors means a lot more than just running a business—it’s a commitment to the community.
Working with an ambulance service to save lives is a high calling, and not one many undertake. While there are several types of ambulance workers and other emergency service workers, each one follows a similar pattern of education to work in the field. Education is crucial to working in emergency medical services, so it shouldn’t be neglected.
On Thursday, May 24, 2018, MedStar hosted it’s 9th annual “EMS Night at the Mountain” event at Wachusett Mountain in Princeton MA. This is an event dedicated to celebrating EMS workers and their families for their hard work. The event is focused around fun and entertainment, so it’s a great evening for everyone involved!
When MedStar began it had one goal: provide the best quality care for our patients. That goal has never diminished or been put aside, no matter what. As advances in medical care and technology continue, that mission becomes not only easier, but safer. Current modern medicine has revolutionized the way we use our ambulances and changed MedStar for the better. We never lost sight of our goal, but we now have better tools to achieve it.
As an ambulance service, we are the helping hand in times of need. When you need us, we’re there. But as people, we want to give back to our community. We want the people we train and serve to remember us and what we do. Nicholas and Gregory Melehov run this business on an ideal: giving back. The community and its people are more than just patients, and far more than customers. They’re the lifeblood of MedStar, and the reason our workers get up every morning. In the simplest of trips that ideal lives on. It is because of the community we serve that we are able to provide medical services.
It’s no secret that private ambulance companies offer a different experience to employees than their public hospital counterparts. While working for either provides different challenges and opportunities, a private ambulance company is an overall better fit for those looking for a broader experience. With that said, here are 5 reasons to work for a private ambulance company.
An ambulance service is only as useful as the people who run it. At MedStar, we’ve been a family owned and oriented business since our inception by Nicholas and Gregory Melehov. We’ve been living in our community for generations, and we’re committed to keeping that community safe. It’s not only our motto, but it’s how we run our business. That’s not all though. MedStar isn’t the best just because we’re family owned, but for many reasons beyond that.
It’s no secret than an ambulance ride can be costly. However, what many people don’t acknowledge is the quality of care provided by private ambulance services. Private ambulance services have a financial and ethical investment in every single one of their patients. Not only do they want to provide the best care, but they’ve built their business around doing so. Working for a private service is more than a commitment to your patients, it’s a commitment to a quality of service.
