Friendly Community Care,
When You Need It.
Yankton County EMS provides around-the-clock, paramedic-level ambulance service to Yankton and the surrounding communities. In addition to 911 response, we offer various medical transport services and educational opportunities and proudly engage in community outreach.
Keeping the lines of communication open
Recent discussions at Yankton County Commission Meetings about alternative funding options have raised a few questions throughout the community. Find answers in the ambulance comparison presentation from July 2024.
Our goal is to provide the highest quality level of care at the lowest cost possible to Yankton County taxpayers.
