Emergency Medical Services Week

This week marks Emergency Medical Services Week, a time dedicated to honoring the dedication and service of emergency medical services personnel. President Gerald Ford first recognized this week in 1974, and this year, as we celebrate the 50th anniversary, the theme “Honoring Our Past, Forging Our Future” highlights the essential contributions of these healthcare heroes. It also emphasizes the importance of looking ahead to advancements and maintaining a steadfast commitment to providing excellent emergency medical care for communities nationwide.
