Established in 2021, Bergen Hatzalah Emergency Medical Services operates as an independent 501(c)3 organization affiliated with Chevra Hatzalah. The faith-based all-volunteer organization is licensed by the New Jersey Department of Health's Office of Emergency Medical Services and responds to all those who summon it from across Bergen County.
Bergen Hatzalah swiftly responds to emergency calls, providing vital, compassionate, and culturally sensitive EMS care and transport to those in need. As part of the larger Chevra Hatzalah network, the organization boasts over 1,100 volunteer EMTs, 200 paramedics, and nearly 100 ambulances stationed across the New York Metropolitan area.
Hatzalah's cutting-edge dispatch center, the sole non-governmental facility in the U.S. with authorization to access blocked caller ID data (similar to some 911 call centers), receives and dispatches approximately 75,000 calls annually. Hatzalah prioritizes dispatching the nearest responders-comprising EMTs, paramedics, and physicians-to patients, ensuring prompt assistance.
Completely reliant on volunteers, Bergen Hatzalah relies on donations to cover operational expenses. Generous contributions directly support our lifesaving mission, making a tangible impact on the communities we serve. Please Consider joining our effort by becoming a partner in our crucial endeavor.
