McCabe Ambulance Service (“McCabe”) has been the sole emergency service provider
for the city of Bayonne since the early 1980s. Founded by H. Mickey McCabe in 1973,
McCabe began as a household operation with a single ambulance and family members
answering calls at all hours of the day and night. Since its inception, McCabe has
developed into one of the most elite and professional operations in the state of
New Jersey.Functioning on many different levels, McCabe's areas of operation include:
- 911 emergency dispatch
- BLS inter-facility transport
- hospital wheelchair transport
- wheelchair van transport
- Board of Education transport for special needs children
- our new Specialty Care Transport
division that operates daily with a full-time Registered Nurse.
We function as the only privately operated and licensed E-911 dispatch center in
the state of New Jersey. All of our dispatchers are New Jersey Certified Emergency
Medical Dispatchers, trained in call-taking and pre-arrival instruction.
The McCabe Institute of Emergency Preparedness (M.I.E.P.) is McCabe's own training
agency. The M.I.E.P. is one of only 52
American Heart Association certified training agencies in New Jersey. In
addition, the M.I.E.P. is recognized by the
National Safety Council in First Aid training.
In maintaining its reputation as one of the finest EMS outfits in the state, McCabe
prides itself on serving its patients with the cleanest and most up-to-date equipment
on the market. It is not unusual to hear that McCabe has the nicest ambulances around.
All of our vehicles are no more three years old and shine as brightly as they did
when first purchased. All vehicles are thoroughly inspected each day by a tour supervisor
before they are put into service.
McCabe Ambulance Service is comprised of a very special team, one whose reputation
speaks volumes. In order to be part of this team, a true sense of compassion and
professionalism must be delivered by each and every employee at all times. The hallmark
of McCabe is and always has been PATIENT CARE. To be part of the best, one must
be at their best... always.
