The United Counties of Leeds and Grenville announce the upcoming retirement of Paramedic Service Chief Jeff Carss, marking the conclusion of an extraordinary career in emergency medical services spanning nearly four decades.

Chief Carss began his career in the fall of 1988 with Thames Valley Ambulance in London, Ontario. Throughout his distinguished career, he has served in numerous roles across the paramedic profession, including frontline Primary Care and Advanced Care Paramedic, Ambulance Communications Officer, educator and administrator within the Base Hospital Program, Critical Care Paramedic, and Operations Manager within Ontario's air ambulance system.

In 2012, Chief Carss joined the Leeds Grenville Paramedic Service as Deputy Chief before being appointed Chief in 2019. Over the past fourteen years serving the organization, including the last seven years as Chief, he has played a pivotal role in strengthening paramedic services, advancing patient care, supporting staff development, and ensuring residents and visitors receive high-quality emergency medical care when they need it most.
