🚑 EMS Week: May 17-23, 2026 🚑
This week, we proudly recognize National EMS Week 2026 and the dedicated EMS professionals who answer the call every day. This year’s theme, “Improving Outcomes, Together,” highlights the teamwork and collaboration that make emergency medical services possible. EMTs, paramedics, firefighters, dispatchers, police officers, nurses, emergency department staff, physicians, and many other healthcare and public safety professionals work together every day to provide the highest level of patient care.
The Somers Fire Department would like to thank all of our EMRs, EMTs, Advanced EMTs, and Paramedics for their commitment, professionalism, and compassion shown to our community day in and day out. Whether responding in the middle of the night, providing critical care during emergencies, or simply offering reassurance during difficult moments, your work makes a difference.
We also extend our appreciation to all of our mutual aid partners and EMS providers everywhere who stand ready to help whenever needed. The EMS system is built on teamwork, and we are grateful for the strong partnerships that help keep our communities safe.
To all EMS professionals:
Thanks you for your service, sacrifice, and dedication during EMS Week and every week.
