Second Alarmer's Association and Rescue Squad of Montgomery County, Inc., also known as Second Alarmer's Rescue Squad ("SARS"), is a private, non-profit emergency medical service provider based in Willow Grove, Pennsylvania. SARS operates 11 MICU Ambulances across 5 Stations, providing advanced life support (ALS) service to 7 Montgomery County municipalities[2] as its primary coverage area, as well as mutual aid service to surrounding agencies.
In addition to emergency medical services, SARS operates a K9 Search Team, an EMS Training Center, a Tactical EMS Team, and provides administrative billing services for other EMS organizations. Under its original charter in 1938, SARS was formed to provide Firefighter rehabilitation service, modeled after the nearby Second Alarmer's Association of Philadelphia.
