there when you need us.

Founded in 1996 by Frank Macera Jr. and Joseph Jaeger Sr., A-MED began with two ambulances and a clear purpose: providing reliable, high-quality care. Today, we stand as one of Louisiana’s most trusted private ambulance services.

our story

Frank and Joe set out to build a high-performing organization that puts people first, keeps its word, and measures success by impact rather than scale.

30 years later, that vision continues to guide us. We remain committed to putting your needs first and being there when it matters most.
