Why I Joined Fire/EMS

Becasue I love to help people in need. I also enjoy the adrenaline rush. Mainly because when growing up some family members were treated by emergency services and I saw the passion in which those people worked with and wanted that for myself. Also, it runs in the family, whether it be law enforcement, fire services, ems, or medicine.

Why I Love Fire/EMS
