Albemarle Communities
Albemarle County surrounds or includes the city of Charlottesville, several towns, and many named communities and neighborhoods. Using a combination of volunteer and career personnel, Charlottesville and Albemarle separately provide fire, rescue, and law enforcement services to their citizens. With property in both the city and county, the University of Virginia (UVA) has its own police department, security force, ambulance fleet, and is home to the Pegasus medevac helicopter. Many of the above agencies work together regularly under mutual aid agreements. 911-calls are received by, and dispatched centrally from, the local Emergency Communications Center. The UVA Medical Center and Martha Jefferson Hospitals serve citizens in this and surrounding counties. UVA Medcom dispatches UVA's ambulance fleet and Pegasus. UVA Medic V (read as "Medic 5") ambulances primarily serve UVA medical facilities. UVA Special Event Medical Management (SEMM) ambulances primarily provide standby support at special events with large crowds.
