Elgin Medi-Transport's History
Elgin Medi-Transport was founded by Pat Crawford on June 20th, 1977. Pat was a member of the first class of sixteen EMT-P Paramedics in the Greater Elgin area. With Pat's extensive knowledge of the industry, strong customer service and vision, Elgin Medi-Transport continues to grow to include over thirty employees. The distinction of being the first EMT service in the area is just part of what sets us above the competition making Elgin Medi-Transport the only choice in caring for your patient and family transport needs!
Elgin Medi-Transport was the first service used by Sherman Hospital's Intra Aortic Balloon Pump Cardiac Transport Team. Over ten years ago, Elgin Medi-Transport was the first provider to install 12 lead cardiac monitors in all our ambulances. This technology has advanced to include radio transmission of cardiac information to the receiving hospital emergency departments allowing for faster treatment of incoming patient where every second counts. Our ambulance fleet of eight vehicles are all equipped with the latest technology making us leaders in the industry.
Elgin Medi-Transport's philosophy goes beyond our equipment. Our focus is patient care and comfort! We are a "people first" company. Our knowledgeable and courteous staff prides itself on making a patient's experience with us a positive one. From the premium hand laundered cotton linens used in our ambulances to our billing staff who handle all your insurance needs, we strive to uphold Pat's philosophy "Treat every patient like a member of your family"
