The units are stationed in Canton, Waynesville, Clyde and Maggie Valley and work a 24/48 or 24/72 schedule. The EMS Supervisor operates a quick response vehicle along with management of daily operations. An EMS coverage plan including "move-ups" to high call volume areas to improve response times is currently in place and is adjusted to maintain consistent response times.
