Why I Joined Fire/EMS

Getting to help people is obviously the main reason I got involved first in EMS and now recently in fire. It is nice knowing that I can have an impact on someone who needs help. Just hearing a thank you is all I need to keep going in this line of work.

Why I Love Fire/EMS

I enjoy having an impact on someone's life

Top Issues Facing Responders:
