Major work needs to be done on this advertisement

Because that's what it is at present - little more than an advertisement. Two major problems:

"Through the years, Rural/Metro has stayed on the leading edge of EMS technologies, offering Advanced life support ambulances to communities in its public/private service model." The term "leading edge" is subjective at best, adspeak at worst. The claim can't be verified without getting into a really long argument over what constitutes "leading edge".
The 'Police Services' section is nothing more than slanted POV. Besides, according to their website it doesn't appear they even provide police services anymore. As the Oro Valley event is already mentioned in the Wiki article on privatization in criminal justice (which itself needs work), there doesn't appear to be a point to having this info here - especially written with a blatant bias.
