Taos Ski Valley Emergency Medical Services
Taos Ski Valley Emergency Medical Service (TSVEMS) is a volunteer organization that was formed July 1st, 2000. Before TSVEMS was formed, all emergencies outside the hours of the medical clinic had to wait approximately 40 minutes or more for the ambulance to arrive before any care was available. TSVEMS responders are available 24/7 by calling 911. Central Dispatch in Taos notifies us by radio that there is an emergency and an ambulance is automatically sent from Taos. We are a non-transport service, however we have a fully equipped vehicle used to respond to calls. The winning entry in the contest to name the vehicle was “Totemoff”.
Lynda Lynch M.D. and Crista Castro P.A. run the Mogul Medical Clinic here in Taos Ski Valley, We have many active members who have gone through extensive training to be part of this system. We respond to everything from altitude sickness, heart attack, fall off a roof or to an injured hiker.
