We are pleased to announce that our AEMT of the year award recipient was recognized today. Although our award recipient, Naomi Giddeons, was unable to attend the initial announcement due to work commitments. Despite bearing the same last name as our chief, Naomi has demonstrated exceptional dedication and skill, undoubtedly exceeding expectations. At just 19 years old, Naomi obtained her AEMT certification, showcasing her commitment to the field. During medical boards, her proficiency was evident, leading to her swift release to function as an independent provider. On her first shift in this capacity, Naomi successfully managed a critical patient transport, setting a strong precedent for her role. It didn’t stop there, she’s managed numerous additional challenging calls and obtained a Full-Time job in a nearby county. She is currently in Paramedic school and continues to serve the community with our department.

Way to go Naomi!! This award is well deserved.

πŸš‘ EMS WEEK 2026 πŸš‘
May 17–23, 2026

This week, we proudly recognize the dedicated men and women of Union Rescue Squad who answer the call day and night to serve our community. From emergencies on the highway to moments of crisis at home, our EMS professionals stand ready with compassion, skill, and commitment.

EMS is more than a job β€” it’s a calling. It’s long hours, difficult decisions, missed holidays, and showing up when others are experiencing some of the worst moments of their lives.

To our EMTs, AEMTs, paramedics, first responders, volunteers, and support staff:
THANK YOU for your sacrifice, professionalism, and unwavering dedication to the citizens we serve.

This EMS Week, we celebrate the heart behind the uniform and the impact you make every single day.

πŸš‘ Union Rescue Squad
β€œServing with Pride. Caring with Compassion.”
