Lancaster EMS begins renovations on new building

LANCASTER COUNTY, Pa. (WHTM) — Lancaster EMS has begun renovations on a building where its administrative operations will eventually move in.

The building, on Fairview Avenue, was purchased in 2022 for $2 million.

Emergency calls will not be responded to out of this building. It will be mostly administrative employees stationed there, but they also hope to host the community there for a variety of services.

“We also want to have engagement or community members can come and walk in,” Executive Director for Lancaster EMS C. Robert May said. “We have a patient engagement area on the ground floor where they can come and if they need their blood pressure checked, they need to have questions about health care, if they have a need to get a vaccine, whether it’s COVID or influenza or childhood vaccines, we can offer that out of this facility.”
