Killingly-Brooklyn Ambulance Corps, Inc

Yesterday:

KB YesterdayK-B Ambulance Corps was organized in 1939 as an all volunteer corps serving the towns of Killingly and Brooklyn Connecticut. The original headquarters was established on Furnace Street in Danielson in the current location of The Imperial Room. The first service of its kind in Northeastern Connecticut, K-B Ambulance Corps is the primary emergency medical transport provider for the Town of Killingly.

Today:

KB TodayK-B Ambulance is a non-profit organization. We routinely assist other area services on a call-by-call basis as needed. With our three ambulances, we average 197 EMS calls a month. In 1980, K-B moved to its current location on Westcott Road, a former body shop retrofitted to meet the Corps needs. In the early 1990's, the town of Brooklyn formed its own ambulance service with the Mortlake Fire Company.

watch progress on our new constructionUPDATE 2009: Today KB Ambulance is excited to announce that site work has been completed on our new addition!  It has brought all of KB's services under one building and provides much needed space.  It houses the administrative offices, a new training facility, new day room for staff, new sleeping quarters, and a new bay for the ambulances.  It will also help KB to begin to plan for the future and any further expansion that may come up in KB's future.  Stay tuned for the details of our open house and picture gallery of the new addition!

Staff:

In 1995 K-B added a full-time paid administrator, one part-time and two full-time Emergency Medical Technicians (EMT). Today, the full time K-B staff consists of an Administrator, Operations Manager, Billing Manager,  4 full time EMTs and 1 part time EMT.

Paid crews now protect our community Monday thru Friday, 6 a.m.- 6 p.m., and 24 hours a day Saturday and Sunday. They are supplemented by a force of 34 volunteer EMTs and 23 Medical Response Technicians. They cover the time when paid staff is not on duty and also handle any second and third crew calls.
