History and Mission Tri-Boro Volunteer Ambulance Corp Bergen County New Jersey

As the primary emergency medical services agency for Montvale, Park Ridge and Woodcliff Lake, Tri-Boro Volunteer Ambulance Corps responds to various calls for help. A medical emergency in a home is the most common type of call we handle. The Tri-Boro area also has a number of assisted living facilities, senior citizen facilities, doctor's offices and clinics which place a large demand upon our resources.

Additionally we are often called to the various schools and corporate office facilities as well as the Garden State Parkway and service center.

It is not uncommon for all three of our ambulances to be responding to emergencies simultaneously.
