A new Henderson County EMS station has opened in Fletcher. The station is scheduled to operate 12 hours per day, seven days per week, and was approved by the Board of Commissioners in the fiscal year 2016-17 budget to address the increasing number of emergency medical calls countywide.
The new ambulance and crew are based at the Fletcher Fire and Rescue Main Station, thanks to the cooperation of the Fletcher Fire and Rescue Department.
Locating the new ambulance in Fletcher will help address overall EMS call volume and decrease response times to emergency calls.
