HANDS FOR LIFE

When an adult or teen collapses from cardiac arrest, studies show that survival rates fall 10 percent each minute without CPR before emergency medical assistance, often with a fatal outcome.  Experts agree that if more people knew how to provide effective, simple to apply, hands-only-CPR, more victims could be helped instantly.

Founded in 1975, New Canaan Volunteer Ambulance Corps (NCVAC) is the 911 provider of Emergency Medical Services to the town of New Canaan, CT.  NCVAC is comprised of approximately 55 actively riding members each of whom rides a minimum of 48 hours a month and attends monthly ongoing medical education seminars.  Our 100% volunteer Corps operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and provides the highest level of pre hospital emergency medical care, including transport to Stamford Hospital and Norwalk Hospital in one of our three state of the art ambulances, free of charge to our patients.

We encourage you to explore our website to learn more about NCVAC and Emergency Medical Services.
