Lifeguard Ambulance Service and Parkridge Health System have a new visual expression for their three-year partnership, as the emergency service provider recently added the Parkridge Health System logo to several of its ambulances.
“Lifeguard is excited about the opportunity to further display our partnership with Parkridge Health System in serving the Chattanooga metro community,” said Brett Jovanovich, Vice President and COO of Lifeguard. “Although we just recently added the Parkridge logo to our fleet, we’ve been the contracted provider for ambulance transportation for all of the Parkridge facilities since 2007.”
“Our company has prided itself on providing the highest quality patient care and comfort available,” noted Mr. Jovanovich. “These are the values that we instill in our Chattanooga team members, as well as our 650 employees working throughout the Southeast U.S. and internationally.”
Darrell Moore, President and CEO of Parkridge Health System said, “Parkridge Health System has a strong commitment to our patients and the community we serve. Our goal is to create a seamless network of care that consistently exceeds our patients’ expectations. Lifeguard Ambulance is focused on providing the best service to our local and regional patients, and we are proud to continue our partnership with this organization.”
