CAMDEN COUNTY
SHERIFF’S EMERGENCY RESPONSE TEAM
Summary

The Camden County Sheriff’s Emergency Response Team (S.E.R.T.) is committed to providing the best specialty unit support available to the communities of Camden County. S.E.R.T. has been in operation since 1983 and has conducted over 1600 successful missions. The Team is available to respond anywhere within the County twenty-four hours a day seven days a week. The objective of S.E.R.T. is to provide communities the ability to respond to unconventional incidents in a coordinated manner without unduly depleting local law enforcement’s ability to respond to routine calls for police service. Our primary mission is the preservation of life through proper tactics, training, experience and resource deployment.

Service:

The SERT Team is comprised of Tactical Team members, Bomb Technicians, Tactical K-9 Teams and Crisis Negotiators. Depending on the assignment, the units can function independently or as one highly trained team. The team is trained and equipped to respond to a wide array of extraordinary emergency incidents. According to Federal standards, the S.E.R.T. Team has a “Type I” rating, which is the highest rating awarded. The S.E.R.T. Team is the only Type I team in Camden County. This newly organized and highly trained division is available to all Camden County law enforcement agencies upon request. Requests should be made directly to the Sheriff’s Office at (856) 225-5470 or by contacting Central Communications at (856) 783-1333.
