PARAMEDIC
Professional Summary

Focused Paramedic well-versed in patient assessment and emergency care. Reliable and efficient with four years of quality performance in patient care as a paramedic and approximately seven years of experience working with patients and staff in an emergency department as a patient care technician. I have recently become a preceptor at Lincoln County EMS but have been training employees and working with students since starting in the emergency department in 2012. I love to expand my knowledge and help others expand theirs as well. I am determined to help those around me feel successful and want to be a part of the change to training within my field.

Accomplishments

I was nominated by multiple coworkers and received the "Outstanding Rookie of the Year" award following my first year as a paramedic. This award shined on my progression as a paramedic as well as my patient care and dedication.
