Cabell County EMS dedicated its newest station on December 19, 2008. A large crowd was on hand to witness the ribbon cutting to our new EMS station. The station is designated as Cabell County Emergency Medical Services Station 6. It is expected to improve the response times to the west end of Huntington and along Interstate 64. The station is named in honor of Ted T. Barr, who is considered to be the father of emergency medical services for Cabell County. In 1974, Ted Barr was Sheriff of Cabell County and recognized a need for an Emergency Medical Service beyond the usual funeral home based service. Ted Barr had the vision to start what was then known as S.T.O.P. or the Sheriffs Technical Officer Patrol which evolved into Cabell County Emergency Medical Services.

The station is located at 1766 Washington Ave. in Huntington and cost 1.3 million dollars. The station houses both ALS and BLS ambulances.
