HVA Patch HVA Base Henrietta Ambulance 6179 Since 1962, Henrietta Volunteer Ambulance ("HVA") (aka Henrietta Ambulance) has proudly served the residents, workers, and commuters within the Town of Henrietta. "Today, we remain a non-profit organization and are dispatched to medical emergencies by the Monroe County 911 Center. Calls are received over two-way radios and alpha-numeric pagers.
Our medics are required to be at least a New York State Emergency Medical Technician; many are certified at the Intermediate, Critical Care, and even Paramedic levels. HVA has a fleet of eight vehicles including five ambulances and three "fly cars" which respond to provide Advanced Life Support to neighboring towns. Our roster consists of 90 personnel including a mix of volunteers, part-time employees and 8 full-time employees. We receive approximately 5,200 annual calls for service each year.
