Filling a Critical Gap on the Peninsula

Kachemak Rapid Care Ambulance was founded to address a dangerous reality on the Kenai Peninsula: patients needing urgent ground transport to Anchorage or between facilities faced dangerous delays β€” especially when air medevac is grounded by Alaska's unpredictable weather.

Local fire departments handle 911 emergency response, but the need for reliable BLS, ALS interfacility, non-acute medical and long-distance critical care transport was going unmet. We stepped in to change that.

Guided by faith, integrity, and a deep love for our community, we provide every patient the safe, professional, compassionate care they deserve β€” regardless of the conditions outside.
