Meet LaShina Davis. LaShina began her career in EMS in 2010 as an EMT Basic, working for Acadian Ambulance. She obtained her paramedic in 2012 and worked in a ground unit for many years. In 2021 while still working a ground unit, she became an Associated Quality Improvement Coordinator for the New Orleans area and later that year took on a full-time role as a Mobile Health Paramedic. In 2023, she joined the LCMC family as an ER Paramedic at Touro. We love our EMS!

Occupational therapist Erin Gandy from Touro joins WVUE to discuss what rehabilitation really looks like after a stroke, brain injury, or spinal cord injury. She explains how recovery goes beyond mobility to address often-overlooked issues like bladder control and sexual function, and highlights Touro's specialized inpatient program — while reminding viewers that help is available at any stage of recovery, including outpatient options.

Meet Spencer Constant. He shared, "On my days outside of the Hospital, I am an adjunct instructor for the National EMS Academy where I'm teaching future Paramedics. Although I enjoy my time in the hospital and teaching, every few weeks you can catch me working the streets with New Orleans EMS." We love our EMS!

Meet Amber Pyrovolos. She shared, "I love everything about being a paramedic. Being able to assist someone when they are going through the worse time is so rewarding. It is amazing. I think laughter is the best medicine, and I also believe it takes no effort to be a good human. I love people so it just comes very easy to me. My husband is also a paramedic for West Jefferson as well as my brother-in-law." We love our EMS!
