The Patrol/Paramedic Division is staffed by 42 full-time Deputy Sheriff/Paramedics
supported by 10 part-time personnel. We provide high profile patrol and crime
detection and answer calls for service from the public. The Deputies in Patrol
Division are uniformed personnel driving marked law enforcement vehicles. Davis
County is known nationally for its cost effective dual-role Paramedic program. The
Patrol/Paramedic Division provides the most economical, quality Paramedic service
in the entire State of Utah. The Deputy/Paramedics are among the most competent,
highly trained law enforcement/medical professionals in the United States. These
Deputies respond to all types of police and medical emergencies, 24/7. Our dual
function is a very efficient and practical use of manpower. The Deputy/Paramedics
also do the initial investigation of criminal activities, and are able to solve a
significant percentage of those cases. We do targeted patrols, and participate in
community-oriented policing efforts. The Division is also responsible for bike
patrol, canyon patrol of Forest Service area, and the Citizen’s Academy. We also
manage the Special Weapons and Tactics/Paramedic Tactical Rescue Unit (SWAT Team).
