Non Emergency Transports

Residents of Baldwin Twp., Castle Shannon, Dormont, Greentree, Mt. Lebanon and Whitehall requiring scheduled non-emergency medical transports are encouraged to request their community ambulance service. Patients needing transport home or between medical facilities do not have to utilize the hospital's transportation company.

You may request the hospital to contact MRTSA for transport. To schedule Non-Emergency Transport call MRTSA at 412-343-7889.

Car Seat Safety

Paramedic Josh Stuart coordinates the Car Seat Safety Program at MRTSA.   Because at least nine out of ten car seats locally are improperly installed, our mission is to teach parents and caregivers about the safest ways to transport children.  We advocate the proper use of child seats according to the manufacturer's instructions. Every situation is different and not every seat fits every vehicle.  We will make the best recommendation to you and work with you for a proper installation.  We ask you to help so that you can confidently secure your child in your vehicle, so that every ride is a safe ride. To schedule a car seat appointment please call 412-343-5111.

Honor Guard

The MRTSA Honor Guard was created in the fall of 2000. It consists of 7 members including Chaplain Raymond Cook. The Honor Guard participates in public safety funerals, parades and service recognition.
