Emergency Medical Services (EMS)

For more than 30 years, Community Life Team has been serving the residents of the City of Harrisburg.

Originally River Rescue, Community Life Team updated its name and expanded services as the needs of the community changed. Once staffed completely by volunteers, Community Life Team now employs a highly qualified, certified and well-trained staff of 40 paramedics and 50 EMTs. Each year, Community Life Team responds to more than 15,000 calls in our community, of which 8,600 are emergency 911 calls.
