As National EMS Week comes to a close, the New Orleans EMS Foundation would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to the incredible first responders who serve our city with courage, skill, and compassion every single day. Your dedication to saving lives and supporting our community does not go unnoticed — thank you for all that you do. We also want to give a huge THANK YOU to our generous sponsors, SERVS and Horton Emergency Vehicles, for making New Orleans Emergency Medical Services Week possible. Your support helps us honor our EMS professionals and ensure they have the tools and recognition they deserve. Here’s to the heroes in blue who run toward the call when others run away. (fb)
