Emergency Dial 9-1-1
Managing health concerns can be difficult when appointments, medications and everyday needs become overwhelming. The Ocean Pines Volunteer Fire Department is proud to serve as the Official EMS Partner of the Worcester County Mobile Integrated Health Program, which helps residents connect with care and community support.
Through non-emergency visits and coordinated follow-up, the program helps identify unmet needs and connect people with resources that support their health at home.
Mobile Integrated Health brings together local emergency medical services and community health partners. OPVFD-employed paramedics work with the Worcester County Health Department and the countywide program team to support residents beyond an emergency response.
The program helps bridge gaps between home, medical providers and community services. Its purpose is to help people get appropriate support earlier and reduce avoidable reliance on emergency care.
