At Pope County EMS, our people are our greatest asset. That's why we're thrilled to relaunch our employee spotlight series! Join us as we take you behind the scenes and introduce you to the dedicated individuals who embody our values.
This week on the Pope County EMS spotlight, we are featuring EMT and Paramedic student, Brooke Chenowith! Brooke has been with Pope County EMS for two years, and has been enrolled in the Paramedic program at UAPTC for three months.
When asked what inspired her to join the medical field, particularly EMS, she said, “Working in EMS and being the first one on scene is both rewarding and challenging. But that’s what I love about the job. Every call is unique and you encounter a wide variety of situations. EMS work is fast paced and unpredictable, and after doing clinicals in EMT school, I knew EMS is what I wanted to do.”
In the world of medicine and emergency services, you are likely to find a family atmosphere. We asked Brooke what she loved most about working at Pope County EMS, and she said, “The people, 100%. I’ve never met a group of people like the ones I work with. They truly are family and they push me to be a better person, EMT, and one day, Paramedic. I wouldn’t be able to get through this job without them.“
Brooke has a very busy schedule but still makes time for what matters most. We asked what she enjoys doing in her limited time away from EMS. She said, “During my free time, I love to spend time with my family and my puppies! They are the most important thing to me and I’m beyond thankful for them!“
Brooke exemplifies the professionalism and dedication that we value at Pope County EMS. Her contributions are instrumental to our success, and we are proud to recognize her as this week's featured employee.
