GET INVOLVED: BE A LIFELINE FOR SIERRA COUNTY

Sierra Frontier Medical Resources (SFMR) is a non-profit organization dedicated to restoring and sustaining vital emergency medical services (EMS) for the residents and visitors of Western Sierra County. Our community depends on us to provide Advanced Life Support (ALS) and urgent care that was lost in 2014.
Every donation, every hour volunteered, and every voice raised helps us staff our ambulances, train our responders, and keep our community safe. Join us in strengthening the future of healthcare on the frontier.
