Each year, during the third week of May, we recognize and celebrate EMS Week — a special time dedicated to honoring the hardworking EMS professionals who serve our communities every day. Emergency Medical Services is often a thankless profession, but our Paramedics and EMTs continue to give their all because they are passionate about helping others during times of need. Their dedication, compassion, and commitment do not go unnoticed.
