We were excited today to officially break ground on the future home of Bledsoe County EMS.

This new EMS facility is a significant investment in the health, safety, and emergency preparedness of our community. The project is being made possible through a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), with the county providing the remaining funding necessary to bring this vision to life.

We would like to extend our sincere appreciation to Mayor Gregg Ridley, the Bledsoe County Commissioners, and all those who worked diligently behind the scenes to make this project a reality. Your commitment to supporting EMS and investing in the future of our community is greatly appreciated.

We would also like to recognize Dude Construction Company, who was awarded the project and has already began working to prepare the site. In addition to the new building, the project includes a concrete pad for a future garage that will be capable of housing up to five ambulances, allowing us to continue growing and improving our service to the citizens we are privileged to serve.

We look forward to sharing updates as construction progresses and celebrating the completion of this important project with our community.

The following is the obituary for Scobey. Procession details will be sent out to all agencies soon.

Charles P.B. “Scobey” Newman, 65, passed away Tuesday, August 1, 2023, after a courageous battle of cancer. He was born on February 10, 1958 in Knoxville, TN. He is survived by Lynette Newman Johnson, mother; Charles P.B. “Trip” Newman III, son; Nicholas Xander Newman, son; Haley Elizabeth Newman Brown, daughter (Derek); two granddaughters, two grandsons and one great grandson. Jay Scott Newman, brother (Beth); Kevin Newman, brother (Pam). Two nieces and two nephews. Doris Newman, aunt and several cousins. He was preceded in death by Charles P.B. Newman, Sr., father; Steven Newman, son; Thelma Longmire, grandmother; Claude Newman, grandfather; Mary Newman, grandmother (James Sheldon) and Charles Andrew Newman, nephew.
For over forty years, Scobey Newman was a servant to the medical field in East Tennessee and has devoted his entire life to Jesus Christ. Scobey first began his time with HCEMS in the 1990’s as a part time paramedic while still employed full time with Erlanger’s LifeForce air medical program. At the conclusion of his flight career, Scobey then joined HCEMS full time in 2009. He obtained his EMT license in 1978 and then his Paramedic license in 1981, and his work history includes service with Monroe County EMS, Knox County Ambulance Service, Rural Metro in Knoxville, East Tennessee EMS, Meigs County EMS, Bradley County EMS, Hutchison EMS, Life Guard Ambulance, Puckett EMS, Grandview EMS, Baptist Med Flight in Knoxville, Erlanger LifeForce, Hamilton County EMS
His kindness, selflessness, compassion and dedication to Emergency Medicine is evident in every interaction with his EMS co-workers, friends, family and patients. Scobey touched so many lives in his community and inspired the minds of many healthcare professionals. He was a humble man offering help to anyone, which he delivered with an unmatched passion of care and kindness. Many medical professionals accredit Scobey to their gain of knowledge in emergency medicine and their determination to avoid failure.
A celebration of Scobey’s life will be held on Monday, August 21, 2023 at 2:00 p.m. at Bayside Baptist Church located at 6100 TN-58, Harrison, TN 37341 and officiating by Chaplain Jim Lewis.
