Wide country. Close-knit care.
A lifeline across the western Hill Country.
Edwards County EMS covers all of Edwards County and responds into portions of Real County when we are the closest help. That means winding ranch roads, the famous Three Sisters route, and hospital transports of at least 48 miles.

Built by neighbors
From a station wagon to advanced life support.
Local volunteers saw a need, trained together, and raised the funds for Edwards County’s first ambulance. That spirit still powers the service today.
