It has been an extremely busy week here at Eagle Grove EMS! A little recap of our week……

We have had 25 Emergency calls this last week!! Wow! What a busy week for our crews. Yesterday alone we had seven 911 calls 😯 Way to go everyone!!

Wednesday, we also hosted an Open House in honor of EMS Week. Thank you to those that stopped by to honor our crew and celebrate with us.

We are working hard to orientate our new providers. It is so awesome watching this crew continue to grow. Extremely proud of the amazing team that we have!!

How long have you been in EMS:
-Nearly 4 years total

Why did you go into EMS:
-I thought if people saw a familiar face in
their most vulnerable time that it would
calm them. I also wanted to give back to
my community and be a part of a
crew that cares.

Hobbies:
-I love to read mysteries, walk, listen to
music, and spend lots of time with my
grandbabies.

Fun Fact:
-I have gone skydiving, and I would do it

If thinking about joining EMS:
-Treat drivers, EMTs, and above with

understanding.
