The Gila River Indian Community Emergency Medical Services (aka Gila River EMS) provides paramedic, ambulance and rescue services for the Gila River Indian Community. A subsidiary of the tribally owned Gila River Healthcare hospital, Gila River EMS is considered a third service model (i.e., it operates independently from both fire and police departments, and from privately owned ambulance services) and provides emergency medical and rescue services to the Gila River Indian Community in conjunction with the Gila River Police Department and the Gila River Fire Department. Gila River EMS headquarters are located in Sacaton, Arizona.
