A woman-owned and Navy Veteran-owned family business serving the Midlands and all of South Carolina with pride.
Carolina First EMS was founded with a simple mission: provide the highest quality non-emergency medical transportation to the people of South Carolina. As a locally owned and operated family business, we bring personal attention and community values to every patient interaction.
Our team maintains rigorous screening standards for all drivers and EMTs, while staying at the forefront of non-emergency medical transportation technology. We believe every patient deserves safe, dignified, and timely transport to their medical appointments.
These principles guide every decision we make, from hiring our team to serving our patients.
Every patient is treated like family. We bring empathy and kindness to every interaction, understanding the vulnerability of those in our care.
Daily vehicle inspections, background-checked staff, and continuous training ensure our patients are always in the safest hands possible.
We don't settle for good enough. Our military heritage drives us to maintain the highest standards of service and professionalism.
When we say we'll be there, we mean it. On-time performance is not a goal -- it's our standard operating procedure.
We live here, work here, and serve here. Our commitment to Columbia goes beyond business -- it's personal.
We equip our fleet with HALOS body cameras, Samsara telematics, and our Route Genie CAD dispatch system for full transparency and real-time operations.
Facilities, hospitals, and healthcare providers -- let's work together to serve our community.
