About A-MED
A-MED is a private EMS provider based in Gretna, Louisiana, with more than 30 years of service across Southeast Louisiana. We run emergency 911 mutual aid, ALS/BLS interfacility transport, non-emergency ambulance, wheelchair van, and Mobile Integrated Health services across Jefferson Parish, Orleans Parish, and surrounding areas.
