Golf courses present unique challenges for emergency medical services (EMS). Navigating uneven terrain, narrow paths, and unpredictable weather can be difficult, especially since traditional ambulances aren’t built for off-road travel. That’s why it’s essential for golf courses to have the right emergency response equipment ready.
Emergency ATVs & UTVs For Golf Courses
With a weight of around 12,000 lbs, traditional ambulances are not designed for the delicate and often challenging grounds of a golf course. Whether you’re responding in an urban setting or a rural area, driving a full-sized ambulance across the course is typically not feasible—especially after heavy rain.
To ensure that medical care can be provided quickly and effectively, EMS teams should work closely with golf course management to develop a comprehensive preplan. This should include a thorough assessment of the course to identify obstacles and designate staging areas for emergency vehicles.
