Schuyler EMS officially rebrands to Centralus Health EMS
MONTOUR FALLS, N.Y. (WETM) — Schuyler Emergency Medical Services (SEMS), a trusted provider of emergency response in the region, has officially rebranded as Centralus Health EMS.
This update, announced from Centralus Health in a release on Thursday, May 1, reflects the integration of Arnot Health and Cayuga Health under the newly established Centralus Health system, continuing to prioritize outstanding emergency care.
Roll up your sleeve for a good cause in Schuyler County
According to the release, the EMS service, originally launched in 2023 through a contract between Cayuga Health and Schuyler County, delivers around-the-clock pre-hospital care and emergency transport throughout Schuyler County's rural and residential communities. That commitment remains unchanged with the new name and visual rebranding.
The rebrand includes updated ambulance graphics showcasing the Centralus Health EMS name and logo. Operationally, however, the service remains fully consistent with what the community is used to.

'While our ambulances will now carry the Centralus Health name and a new look, nothing else is changing,' said Scott Lyerla, MSN, RN, Senior Director, Clinical Operations & Emergency Services for Centralus Health. 'Our dedicated EMS team will continue to provide the same high-quality, timely care that our community relies on,' he said.
The name change aligns with Centralus Health's broader mission to unify services and expand across the system. By combining the resources of Arnot Health and Cayuga Health, Centralus Health said it's creating a more integrated patient-centered care model while remaining deeply committed to each community it serves.
