What Area Does DFVAC Cover?

The primary coverage area of DFVAC is Dobbs Ferry, New York. This includes Dobbs Ferry Community Hospital, Children's Village, St. Christopher's, Masters School, St. Cabrini Nursing Home and any commercial properties within the village.

Many are surprised to learn that DFVAC does not only provide EMS coverage to Dobbs Ferry, but also assists in Mutual Aid to other neighboring towns. If another agency is unable to get out to a call or has its resources taxed by a significant emergency, Dobbs Ferry will mobilize to assist them. Likewise, neighbors such as Irvington, Hastings and Ardsley will move to help Dobbs Ferry if we are unable to respond. This system of Mutual Aid assures that all the towns are protected, at all times through our joint cooperation.

During extreme incidents (such as those that occured on September 11th, 2001) DFVAC may also be called to help. The DFVAC is NIMS compliant and ready to assist in the event of any act of terrorism or natural disaster.
