What sets us apart:

Direct Response Model

BVAC uses a "Direct Response" model, where members respond directly from their homes to the scene, rather than assembling at a station. This approach saves time and has made BVAC one of the fastest EMS agencies in the state. Each member carries a fully equipped jump kit with oxygen, AEDs, and essential medications.

Strategic Ambulance Locations

To speed up response times, BVAC stations ambulances near where members live, reducing delays in patient transport to the hospital.

We Take You Where YOU Want to Go

BVAC transports patients to several local hospitals, including Holy Name, Englewood, Hackensack, Pascack Valley, Valley Hospital, and Bergen New Bridge. Our crews will always try to honor requests for other hospitals, although they may need to go to the nearest ER if the patient is critical, the requested hospital is on divert, or weather conditions are severe.

"Always In Service"

BVAC is always in service, ready to respond to emergencies 24/7 with dedication, compassion, and professionalism. Our team never stops working to keep you and your loved ones safe—day or night, rain or shine.
