Aside from emergency medical interventions, our EMS team gets out into the community for educational opportunities such as attending local festivals to give young people an inside look - and hopefully spark an interest in - a career as a paramedic.
You'll often see them on standby at local football games, a service they have offered free of charge to our area schools for years, and we have been happy to give back to the community in that way.
They're often the first face in emergency care, and at times our patients will make a special trip to visit them after an event to say thank you.
Help us recognize and thank all paramedics and EMTs serving our communities this week!
