Moorestown First Aid & Emergency Squad to Assume Responsibility for Lenola's Emergency Medical Services

Effective August 12, 2023

Due to financial difficulties, the Lenola Fire Company Emergency Unit will cease operations on August 12, 2023 at 6:30pm. Founded in 1957, the Unit has been supported by countless employees and volunteers who have dedicated their lives to supporting the residents and businesses of Lenola. The operation was solely funded by medical billing and donations, which are no longer sufficient to maintain the service.

The Moorestown First Aid and Emergency Squad, located on Main Street, will assume responsibility for Lenola’s Emergency Medical Services (EMS) coverage. Moorestown FA&ES is prepared to provide the entire Township of Moorestown with the highest quality emergency care and transportation that our residents and businesses have relied on for over 80 years. The community can be assured that an ambulance, staffed by trained professionals, will be there when needed.

Moorestown First Aid & Emergency Squad does not rely on tax dollars from Moorestown Township. The income for operations comes from medical billing, as well as the generous donations that are made by the residents and businesses of our community.

Should there be any questions related to the discontinuation of Lenola’s EMS services, please contact Chief Daniel Sheilds at chief3190@moorestownems.org.
