As the sun begins to set on my EMS involvement of five decades, this episode of the QMC EMS Board & Collar is a reflection that will hopefully, give those who serve in this most worthy profession a chance to look back and be thankful for their contributions. My father stated often, "You dance with who brought ya" and this episode will hopefully, motivate and inspire those that currently serve in this incredibly honorable field of emergency medical services as well as those who got you to this point in your professional life.

Episode #187: EMS Week 2023 - With Gratitude to the Dedicated
Saturday May 20, 2023
Saturday May 20, 2023
EMS Week has again rolled around for its 49th time. Enacted by President Gerald Ford in 1974, we take time to pause, reflect and of course, thank those who are there for us in our worst hour. The dedication and deep respect never goes unnoticed but is surely accentuated and loudly stated, during this week each year.
Take a moment to think about those who serve us and if you get the chance, say thanks. Say thanks to them with your words, actions and legislation to support them. This podcast reflects my deep appreciation for those who perform this challenging work that only few can do.
To each who work in the trenches be it by air or ground, may you enjoy this week of thanks. God Bless and hey, be safe out there. Presented by: Gary Harvat, EMT-P (ret.), CMTE

Get caught up on the latest from our panel of experts and keep abreast of key matters that can cause one to stir through the night. Join us as we explore these two topics and where we are today with each. Presented by: Heidi Campbell, Gary Harvat, Chuck Humphrey and, Ed Marasco
