The $150 million federal grant announced for Arkansas in July, part of the One Big, Beautiful Bill Act, includes $10 million for the Arkansas Ambulance Association. That money will be used to purchase ambulances, CPR devices, ventilators and IV pumps, according to an application the organization submitted to the state.

Josh Bishop, CEO of Pine Bluff-based Emergency Ambulance Services, says his company needs new ambulances. However, he's also a board member with the ambulance association, and he says the group's immediate goal for the money is to provide "a base layer" of support in rural areas where the needs for emergency services are greatest: "It's almost like applying a tourniquet to the bleeding in year one."
