Why I Joined Fire/EMS
Emergency services have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up in a family full of cops. Originally I had thought I would follow in my fathers foot steps and be a cop. However, I quickly realized that policing wasn't for me. I just didn't seem to have the "cop attitude"...So emergency medicine is where I decided I needed to be. I absolutely LOVE it.....I've always felt a strong need and desire to help people and what better way to do it then in EMS.
