Barton County Ambulance District helps deliver essentials during pandemic

Barton County Ambulance District has implemented a community assistance program to deliver essential food and household goods, prescription medications and needed medical supplies to seniors, those with disabilities, veterans, and high-risk individuals. 

That’s according to Brett Peine, District Chief.

He says the program is intended to help those unable to go to the store or pharmacy and to support social distancing.  

Peine says organizers of the effort will also gladly accept monetary or non-perishable goods donations to help make this program a success at meeting the needs of our community.  

Barton County residents needing this service should call the Barton County Ambulance District at (417) 682- 3513 during normal business hours (Monday thru Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.).
