Town of Westlock

Associated Ambulance & Services (Whitecourt) LTD. is contracted by Alberta Health Services to provide Emergency Medical Services (EMS) for the Town of Westlock and surrounding areas. We have maintained the same level of service as previously provided, with two (2) ALS staffed ambulances 24hours/day/seven days a week plus a mechanical back-up stationed in Westlock.

Associated Ambulance has been providing regional ambulance/EMS services to rural Albertan’s for over the past 32 years. We started in Mayerthorpe and have grown to today’s service area that covers twenty communities and surrounding areas in rural Alberta from Jasper to Lac La Biche and south to Rocky Mountain house. We operate in Westlock’s neighbouring communities of Barrhead, Thorhild & Athabasca, offering additional support for the residents of Westlock and our Westlock crews.

We have two administrative offices and fleet service centres located in Mayerthorpe and Edmonton. Our Mayerthorpe office can be contacted at 780-786-2223 and primarily deals with billing for our services and accounts payable. The Edmonton office primarily deals with Operations, Human Resources, Materials Management, Safety, Fleet and Facility management and can be contacted at 780-429-6771.

• The Alberta Health Care system does not cover emergency ambulance service but does cover inter-facility transfers between hospitals.
  
  
• We can direct bill Alberta Blue Cross, Social Services and Health Canada. If you have active coverage at the time of the incident, please inform the ambulance crew or contact our head office in Mayerthorpe at 780-786-2223. Please note that Social services or Health Canada do not pay for ambulance services that are a result of a motor vehicle accident.
  
  
• If you are involved in a motor vehicle accident most insurance carriers require that you pay this bill then make a claim to them for reimbursement. If you are able to submit your invoice directly to your insurance carrier please advise us, as payment may be delayed.
