Caring for Oregon’s citizens is a family tradition.

As Metro West celebrates the 71st anniversary of our founding in 1953, the company has continually adapted to meet the needs of the communities it serves. Metro West holds the distinction of being the longest-running owner-operated ambulance service in the Pacific Northwest. Our company culture is rooted in continually seeking ways to best serve our customers through expanding services and geographies.

We still provide ALS support services to the 911 emergency ambulance providers in Washington County and Clackamas County, but our primary focus is to provide extensive non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT)  and inter-facility transport (IFT) including ICU Level critical care transport, with Mobile Intensive Care Unit team consisting of an ICU/Critical Care RN, Paramedic and EMT; non-emergency ALS, and BLS ambulance services for emergency transfers for a higher level of care such as STEMI, trauma, stroke and high-risk OB patients along with discharges, interfacility transfers, long-distance transfers; Secure Transport services for behavioral health patients under voluntary /involuntary care, custody and treatment; Mobile Integrated Health providing virtual hospital care (Hospital at Home) and wheelchair transportation services.

Metro West Ambulance Service is nationally accredited through the Commission on Accreditation of Ambulance Services (CAAS). CAAS was established to encourage and promote quality patient care in America’s medical transportation system.
