Glen Ridge Volunteer Ambulance Squad

A life saved may be yours, a family member or a friend.

The Glen Ridge Volunteer Ambulance Squad (GRVAS) is an all-volunteer, non-profit, independent organization dedicated to providing Glen Ridge, NJ and surrounding towns with professional, courteous, and skilled emergency care and transportation to the sick and injured, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.  

Important: if you came to this site because you have a medical emergency, PLEASE CALL 9-1-1

The GRVAS responds to all calls with two New Jersey State Certified EMTs (Emergency Medical Technician) on board, a driver who has passed the State mandated CEVO exam and completed extensive on-road training, and usually an EMT in training. GRVAS members are a remarkable mix of volunteers from our immediate community.  The common thread throughout the group: an interest in helping the community in times of need.  Here's how to join the GRVAS.

We've provided pre-hospital emergency care for over 60 years.  Here's a short history of the GRVAS.

 As a volunteer, non-profit organization, the GRVAS doesn't bill for its services.  The Squad is supported by donations from community residents and local businesses.  Here's how to donate to the GRVAS.
