🚑 Meet the Provider Friday 🚑

This week, we’re excited to introduce EMT Nikkoal!

Nikkoal has been with us for about 8 months and has already made a great impact on our team. She’s motivated to learn and plans to further her career by obtaining her paramedic certification.

When she’s not on shift, Nikkoal enjoys spending time with her sweet daughter, Lina. 💕

Fun Fact: Nikkoal has a Great Dane!

We’re lucky to have her as part of the Tamaqua Ambulance family!

Today we’re excited to share a great addition to our patient care tools — new sensory bags have officially arrived at Tamaqua Ambulance!

Sensory bags are designed to help patients—especially children, individuals with autism, dementia, or anxiety—feel more comfortable during what can often be a stressful emergency. These bags include items that provide calming visual, tactile, and auditory stimulation, helping to reduce fear, improve communication, and create a more positive experience during care and transport.

Sometimes the smallest tools can make the biggest difference. Whether it’s easing a child’s anxiety or helping a patient better tolerate an assessment, these bags give our crews another way to provide compassionate, patient-centered care.

And the timing couldn’t have been better—today we had the opportunity to educate one of our EMT students on the use of sensory bags in EMS, giving them hands-on experience with how and when to use these tools in real-world situations.

We’re proud to continue investing in resources that support both our patients and our providers. 💙
