Thank you for visiting our website. I hope that you will find it helpful and informative.

This is a very busy time for Manvel EMS. As our communities grow and as the major thoroughfares that traverse the area become regular routes of travel for more and more people, the need for emergency medical services grows. At Manvel EMS, it is our intent to meet and exceed both the needs and the expectations of the communities we serve and to continue our vision of compassionate, quality emergency care.

Manvel Emergency Medical Services is proud to be the home of more than 30 paid and volunteer EMT's and paramedics, three ambulances capable of providing state-of-the-art, mobile intensive care unit clinical services and an all volunteer board of directors consisting of local business men and women, public servants, healthcare providers and citizens interested in making a difference in their community. Our organization is proud to answer the call of nearly 1,000 citizens each year.

We are proud to be active participants in the East Texas Gulf Coast Regional Trauma Advisory Council and the Southeast Texas Trauma Regional Advisory Council. Both organizations are dedicated to the organization of a system, through which, comprehensive care can be administered to injured citizens on an individual basis or in the event of disaster.

We are the proud recipients of two Texas Department of State Health Services Local Project Grants. One grant, from fiscal year 2006, that helped to purchase  an ambulance and the other, received in fiscal year 2007, was used to provide a third cardiac monitor with the latest clinical technology.

Additionally, we are working hard, with the exceptional support of the Brazoria County Emergency Services District No. 3, to build a new, state of the art facility to house both our clinical and administrative operations. This new station is slated to be built by the District on more than three acres of land in the heart of Manvel. The District has been working hard to complete this project for nearly three years and we can finally see the project coming to fruition. I could not complete this letter without thanking the District and its commissioners for the untiring support.

All of this, however, could not have been completed without the support of the communities we serve. We are proud, each year, to receive the outpouring of support in the form of monetary contributions, the donation of services and operational items, and hundreds of hours of volunteerism.

I am truly honored to lead this group of dedicated and selfless men and women who, either as a professional or community volunteer, work to provide compassionate, quality care to every patient and make this organization something the communities we serve can be proud of. If I can ever answer any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to call or stop by our station.

Once again, let me thank you for visiting our website and especially for all of the support that has been afforded to our organization. If you would like to see your EMS at work, please stop by. It is our privilege to serve.

Respectfully,

Dave Ferguson, Director
Manvel Emergency Medical Services
