🎉 Congratulations to Eric Anderson, our Jefferson County 2026 Community Health Hero! 🎉

For 26 years, Eric has served the Henderson community with extraordinary skill, compassion, and dedication through the Henderson Fire Department and Henderson Volunteer Ambulance. Since becoming Operations Coordinator in 2010, he has been a trusted responder, mentor, and neighbor, answering calls day and night, providing emergency care, offering health guidance, and always stepping forward when someone needed help.

Under Eric’s leadership, the department’s non-response rate fell from 40% to just 2%, meaning 98% of emergency calls now receive a swift response, the best rate in Jefferson County. He also helped advance the department from Basic Life Support to paramedic-level certification while mentoring the next generation of emergency responders. Over the course of his career, Eric is estimated to have personally responded to more than 5,000 fire and ambulance calls.

Eric’s service reaches far beyond emergencies. From offering monthly blood pressure checks to residents of Henderson’s senior apartments to supporting patients and families during difficult moments, he has consistently shown what it means to care for a community.

Please join us in congratulating Eric Anderson, a 2026 Community Health Hero!
