The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Department is launching a new EMS division on Monday.

The service will operate seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.

The launch will bring additional jobs to the county as more staffing is needed.

“The primary objective of this initiative is to provide timely and quality service to our

constituents in need of medical attention all while supplementing the efforts of our EMS partners,” said the county in a written statement.

The ambulance will be staffed by sheriff’s office employees and stationed at the public safety facility in Fultonville.
