Welcome!

Welcome to the Central Iowa EMS Directors website!  The Central Iowa EMS Directors Association is composed of EMS Directors and agency representatives from central Iowa.  The Association meets every other month to share ideas, unite as a single voice, and make decisions on issues affecting our agencies and communities.  There are 9 counties included in the association, which include: Boone, Dallas, Jasper, Madison, Marion, Marshall, Polk, Story, and Warren.

We encourage each EMS agency in the nine county area to have their service director or a representative attend the association meetings.  The meetings are held on third Monday of odd numbered months.  The group meets at a different location each month.  The upcoming meetings are posted on the events tab on the right of this screen or click  here to view the  2010 Meeting Schedule.
