Will I have to wait long if all Fort Lee ambulances are busy?

No, the Borough of Fort Lee maintains standing mutual-aid agreements with surrounding jurisdictions and hospitals to dispatch available ambulances to emergencies. If no Fort Lee ambulance is available, an ambulance from the following will answer your call: 

  • Cliffside Park
  • Edgewater
  • Englewood Hospital and Medical Center
  • Holy Name Medical Center
  • Or Another Agency

 Due to longer distances and the time required to communicate with other dispatchers, response time may be delayed by several minutes.
