While HCTS is not a 911 Emergency Medical Service, in the event of a major disaster they will make their services available to the volunteer agencies in the surrounding areas. We hope to soon establish a working relationship and enact mutual aid agreements with all area EMS services so together we can provide better service to our communities. It is imperative that all agencies work together with a positive attitude.
To be able to provide assistance they must first increase their staff so if anyone is a certified ECA, EMT or Paramedic and looking for a job with a competitive salary please call 830-279-8112 for an application or fax your resume to 830-597-6235. HCTS is an equal opportunity employer.
