June 27, 2022 – Decatur City Manager Scot Wrighton spoke regarding the Decatur Ambulance Service (DAS) dissolving. The ambulance working group is meeting again Tuesday and will release more information tomorrow.
“The City of Decatur learned from HSHS St. Mary’s Hospital more than a week ago that DAS would be dissolving. Since then, the City has been working on a solution with both hospitals and other key medical providers,” Wrighton said.
“While the City’s role is to issue licenses for ambulance services, we are also leading the discussion to ensure a smooth transition of services for our community. Everyone is committed to developing plans that result in no service interruption.”
