The new director of Pella Community Ambulance hopes to continue strengthening the service when he starts.

Greg Higginbotham accepted the role and will begin working in early February. Higginbotham tells KNIA/KRLS News he hopes to foster relationships he has already in Pella and in the county to increase the quality of service provided by Pella Ambulance.

President of the Pella Community Ambulance Board Steve Schemm says they hired Higginbotham to not only lead the service, but to also bolster their current paramedic and volunteer staff.
