After 35 years as CEO, Andrew Rand is retiring from AMT. Andrew’s leadership has helped transform AMT from a traditional ambulance provider into the region’s leading EMS organization. His greatest legacy, however, is the people, partnerships, and culture he helped build along the way.

We’re proud to welcome Todd Baker as AMT’s next CEO. Since 2020, Todd has worked alongside Andrew and our leadership team to help shape the organization we are today and is committed to building on the strong foundation already in place.

The phased transition, which will be completed on December 31, 2026, reflects years of strategic succession planning and reinforces AMT’s ongoing commitment to delivering exceptional patient care while advancing emergency medical services across Illinois.

While this marks a new chapter in AMT’s leadership, our commitment to caring for people and serving our communities remains unchanged. Please join us in thanking Andrew and welcoming Todd as AMT moves into its next chapter. Read our full announcement to learn more.

You don’t have to look very hard to find the people busting their tails to give back to the community. Every child should have the school supplies they need, and Scott and his team are hard at it to assure they do. We stand with them.
