The County of Simcoe is joining other municipalities across the country in celebrating National Paramedic Services Week, which is being recognized from May 18 to 25.

This year’s theme is ‘We Care. For Everyone.’

This theme highlights the professionalism and commitment of paramedics in providing compassionate and high-quality care to residents and visitors.

County of Simcoe Paramedic Services (CSPS) has continued to evolve into a highly sophisticated emergency medical service, providing a broad range of community healthcare support to Simcoe County.

From a highly trained team of Primary Care Paramedics and Advanced Care Paramedics to Community Paramedics supporting vulnerable individuals and those managing chronic diseases, every role within CSPS is vital to continuously enhancing patient outcomes across the region.

“Our County of Simcoe paramedics represent the very best of our community – skilled professionals who continually answer the calls for emergency medical support,” said Simcoe County Warden Basil Clarke. “Day after day, in all conditions and across our diverse region, they provide expert medical care with compassion and dignity. The evolution of our paramedic service reflects our commitment to excellence in emergency healthcare. This Paramedic Services Week, I invite all residents to join me in expressing profound gratitude to these everyday heroes who truly embody this year’s theme: ‘We Care. For Everyone.”

Paramedics will be taking part in several community events during the week.
