Denver, Colo. HCA HealthONE AirLife Denver, the emergency and critical care transport service, is pleased to announce that Northglenn Ambulance is now part of our healthcare network. This investment in prehospital care and transport is the first of its kind in HCA Healthcare, HCA HealthONE’s parent company, demonstrating our health system’s commitment to caring for more lives across the communities we serve.

“Northglenn Ambulance has been a tremendous partner to HCA HealthONE and AirLife for many years, serving the prehospital communities of metro Denver and beyond,” said Brian Leonard, regional assistant vice president for HCA Healthcare’s Western Region Medical Transport. “Between our teams, we collectively have over a century of experience serving patients, hospitals and emergency medical service agencies across Colorado and the surrounding states. We are beyond excited about what this acquisition means for our patients and the communities we mutually serve.”

For more than 61 years, Northglenn Ambulance has served patients, hospitals and emergency medical service agencies with clinical excellence and safety. Now, with 19 ambulances located in three stations, AirLife EMS will continue this legacy of caring throughout the Denver metro region, expanding and enhancing our transport network across our market.

“The founders of Northglenn Ambulance sought to provide and enhance emergency care and medical transport where the services were not available,” said Rick Lindsey, CEO of Northglenn Ambulance. “We have continued this objective for more than six decades, and this new partnership will provide access to resources increasing the reach of our program far into the future.”
