  21. Why host an AMR Safety Jam™ event • AMR is the leader in emergent and non-emergent medical transport in the United States. As such, an effort to improve our communities safety and wellbeing before accidents or illness occurs shows support of our communities health and stability. • Also the efforts to conduct an AMR Safety Jam brings us together with our partners such as, fire departments, hospitals, city councils, county and state governments as well area businesses. • American Medical Response should be friends and neighbors as well as the ambulance service.

  22. What should you expect from an AMR Safety Jam™ • As an EMS service provider in your community these events add value beyond AMR being there when 911 is called. • The intangibles that come from the networking, friendships and alliances built with our partners is tremendous. Also there is publicity, and public appreciation as a value added helps make AMR a NEEDED part of a community beyond being the contracted ambulance. • The value of giving back can not be measured!
