Advancing emergency medical services across Main Line Health
Main Line Health marked an important step forward for emergency medical services (EMS) as Riddle EMS officially became Main Line Health EMS. The change reflects both deep respect for the service's strong history and a shared vision for the future of emergency care across the System.
The transition to Main Line Health EMS, celebrated with a ribbon cutting event, represents a strategic step toward the next generation of emergency medical services. By aligning more closely with the broader System, the team is better positioned to deliver seamless, coordinated care — strengthening connections across hospitals, clinicians and care settings. The team will continue to operate from its home base at Riddle Hospital, maintaining strong community ties while benefiting from Systemwide integration.
For more than 40 years, Riddle EMS has been a trusted presence in the community, responding in moments of urgent need with skill, compassion and professionalism. The team's dedication has saved countless lives and established Riddle EMS as a leader throughout the region. As this new chapter begins, Main Line Health honors the people and commitment that shaped that legacy.
While the name has changed, the mission remains the same. Each member of the Main Line Health EMS team continues to bring the same high-level expertise to every call. The rebranding strengthens the team's ability to meet the expanding needs of the community, while preserving the trusted service delivered for decades.
