Life EMS reimagining behavioral health transports in West Michigan
A program in West Michigan is now being referred to as the “gold standard” when it comes to behavioral health transport.
Life EMS Ambulance’s Behavioral Health Transport (BHT) Program was launched as a pilot program back in 2022, with a focus of providing safe and clinically appropriate transports for clients in need of behavioral health services.
Since then, the program has successfully completed more than 7,000 transports in just over two-and-a half-years.

What a great idea. I hope this makes it to my area soon. I work in EMS, and these transports can be difficult for everyone, especially the patient. With this model everyone will be better served.
