About Us
Navigator Emergency Services is a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving community health, safety, and resilience through mobile medicine, rescue, and education. Founded on the belief that no one should be without access to care or emergency support, we bring life-saving services directly to rural, remote, and underserved populations across Michigan and beyond.
Our multidisciplinary team of registered nurses, EMTs, paramedics, and rescue technicians delivers care where it’s needed most—whether that’s through mobile medical clinics, wilderness and technical rescue operations, or disaster response missions. We specialize in operating in austere and challenging environments, bridging the gap between public health and emergency response.
Beyond emergency services, Navigator is committed to education and prevention. We provide community training in first aid, emergency preparedness, wilderness medicine, and responder development—empowering individuals and organizations to act confidently in times of crisis.
Through collaboration, compassion, and innovation, we strive to build stronger, safer, and healthier communities—ensuring that every person, regardless of geography or circumstance, has access to the care and resources they deserve.
