Lisbon EMS Receives $450,000 to Expand Mobile Integrated Health Program

Lisbon’s volunteer Emergency Medical Services and its mobile integrated health program just received a boost from $450,000 in grants. The Foundation for Healthy Communities awarded the money as part of the state’s share of federal Rural Health Transformation funding, administered by the Governor’s Office of New Opportunities and Rural Transformational Health (GO-NORTH). The funding will support expanding Lisbon Fire and EMS’s mobile integrated health (MIH) program, launched in 2019, and strengthening EMS in Lisbon and the surrounding communities it also serves.
