Our Services
MICU: Our mobile intensive care units (MICU) are staffed by two licensed paramedics
- certified in advanced cardiac life support, pediatric advanced life
support, and pre-hospital trauma advanced life support - with the ability
to bring the skills of an emergency room to your door. Covering 1,200
square miles across three counties, and serving more than 750,000 members
of our community in northwest New Jersey, our caring team leverages modern
technology and time-honored caring to provide the highest levels of emergency
care to you and your loved ones.
SCTU: The specialty care transport unit (SCTU) is a specialized ambulance, staffed
by highly trained registered nurses (RNs) and emergency medical technicians
(EMTs) that provides inter-facility transport for critically-ill patients.
The SCTU serves high-risk patients ranging from newborns to those of advanced
age with multiple medical problems. These ambulances carry state-of-the-art
equipment for cardiac monitoring, advanced life support medications, portable
ventilators and intra-aortic balloon pumps. This allows a smooth transfer
of care between one facility and another, minimizing the stress on the
patients and their families.
BLS/Ambulance Services: The dedicated employees of Saint Clare’s most active ambulance unit
transports patients with diverse needs to a variety of hospitals, skilled
nursing facilities, doctors’ appointments, and personal residences.
Our BLS/ambulance service proudly provides local, regional, and long distance
transports. From wheelchair service to specialized bariatric services,
this unit delivers compassionate care during both emergency and general
medical transport. To schedule a service or for more information, please

Special Operations: Our special operations division provides highly specialized services for
area law enforcement agencies. Saint Clare’s tactically trained
paramedics augment various SWAT and SERT teams in the region, and provide
on-scene medical stabilization and medical transport of those needing
treatment. Special operations also provide logistical support for numerous
large-scale events including Gooch's Garlic Run, Run for Ryan and
the NJ State Fair/Sussex County Farm & Horse Show.
Education and Community Outreach: Saint Clare's EMS employees are among the most qualified personnel
in their respective specialties. We also partner with the community to
facilitate the distribution and maintenance of automated external defibrillators
(AEDs). If your organization needs assistance with upgrading the software
to the latest manufactures' guidelines, we will be glad to assist you.
