There when you need us...


Growing our EMS team, one step at a time.

We're proud to recognize three members of the BCMH EMS team who have taken important steps forward in their paramedic education and careers.

Cody Moore earned his paramedic credentials in June 2025, and Jesse Cowley followed in June 2026. Stephen Stark participated in the June 2026 paramedic program ceremony and is completing his final clinical requirements this month before taking his paramedic certification exam.

Becoming a paramedic requires commitment, extensive training and countless hours of hands-on experience. We're proud of Cody and Jesse for reaching this milestone and of Stephen as he completes the final steps toward his certification.

Their dedication helps strengthen the emergency care we provide to our community.
