Ezras Nashim

For personal, cultural or religious reasons, many women prefer to be treated by female EMTs. Whether for an awkwardly-located burn or an emergency home birth, it feels more modest, more dignified and more comfortable. And just as women can chose where to shop, bank or eat out, they should be able to chose who handles their emergencies. Ezras Nashim is America’s first and only all female Volunteer Ambulance Service. We provide pre-hospital emergency medical care to women in the Jewish community, respecting their values of modesty. Our EMTs are trained in all areas of emergency- particularly emergency labor, OB/GYN and neonatal resuscitation- so that women no longer have to compromise their comfort to receive competent care
