🚑 National EMS Week 2024: Honoring Our Past. Forging Our Future. 🚑

We join our first responders and EMS professionals to celebrate the National EMS Week from May 19-25, 2024, as we mark the 50th Anniversary of this celebration. This year's theme, "Honoring Our Past. Forging Our Future," reminds us to acknowledge the foundational work of those who came before us while also striving to build and lead the EMS system we envision for our future.

We at the Jefferson County SCOPE program are incredibly grateful for the dedication and sacrifices of our participant agencies and first responder staff. Your commitment to saving lives, and ensuring community members safety inspires us every day.

Even as our program works to combat the opioid epidemic, we thank you for your tireless efforts and unwavering bravery, empathy and commitment to training and practicing a recovery oriented system of care. Together, we honor the past and forge a brighter future for EMS.

Cheers!
