About JPAD
Joachim-Plattin Ambulance District (JPAD) is located 30 miles south of St. Louis, Mo and was formed in 1975. The district covers the southeast portion of Jefferson County and proudly serves approximately 63,000 residents. JPAD responds to over 10,000 calls for service a year. It is tax supported district consisting of an elected six member Board of Directors. Our emergency team consists of 36 full-time paramedics and 40 part time EMT/paramedics. JPAD currently operates out of five stations located throughout the district and is staffed with two paramedics 24 hours a day
The ambulance district is committed to provide the best possible advanced life support
to the residents we serve. We have state of the art medical equipment and advanced airway
capability. JPAD works closely with Mercy Hospital Jefferson in Crystal City, MO to provide rapid cardiac
care for patients having a heart attack. We are able to do a 15 lead EKG in the field with our Lifepak 15
cardiac monitor with immediate transmission to emergency rooms and cardiologist. This provides advanced notice to the cardiology team greatly improving the outcome of patient in our care. JPAD also carries advanced medications for Rapid Sequence Intubation. This enables the JPAD clinician to assist patients that are in need of an emergency airway and place a breathing tube with less complication. JPAD utilizes ReVel ventilators for invasive and non-invasive airway management. Enhancing our cardiac arrest therapy is the utilization of the "Lucas" device which provides automated compressions during CPR increasing patient survival while requiring fewer responders and permitting additional personnel to return to service allowing better utilization of your community recourses.
JPAD also host multiple CPR classes for the public per month. JPAD has facilitated numerous Automated External Defibrillators (AED) for public buildings, local police and fire departments. Here at Joachim-Plattin Ambulance District, we strive to provide great customer service with progressive medical care. We developed this web page to keep you informed of what's going on with your ambulance district. Please feel free to contact our administrative office if you have any questions about our service or CPR classes.
