🚨At 12:16 PM today, Thursday, August 21, 2025, Drone814 officially went live through 911 dispatch.

For the first time in the nation, 911 can launch a drone in real time to deliver medical aid, right here in Pennsylvania. This milestone is redefining emergency response and setting a new standard for the entire nation.

We’ve made Pennsylvania history.
We’ve made national history.
Most importantly, we’re shaping the future and we’re saving lives.

To all the organizations that helped bring this initiative to life: we’ve only just begun.

It’s Nurse Appreciation Week—and we’re celebrating two powerhouses who prove that nursing doesn’t stop at the bedside.

Sharon, our Executive Director, and Sherri, our Director of Career Development, are nurses through and through. They’ve both walked the floor, answered the late-night calls, and been there during the toughest and most meaningful moments of patient care.

But now? They’re using that experience to guide, mentor, and inspire the next generation of healthcare professionals.

Once a nurse, always a nurse—and these two are proof that the impact of a nurse goes far beyond the hospital walls.

Thank you, Sharon and Sherri, for continuing to care, lead, and serve. ❤️👩🏼‍⚕️🩺⚕️

This weekend, our AHEC Scholar students traded textbooks for trees at a rural retreat!

They kicked off their day diving into natural medicine and remedies, reconnecting with the roots of rural health…literally.
