This week's Student Spotlight is Rachel Ferguson:

"I’ve always wanted to be in the medical field but never knew exactly what to be. Until last year when I had two people come up to me and ask me to do a ride along with them to see if I’d enjoy EMS. I fell in deep love with being on the road in an ambulance. It’s now my passion to become an EMT. My ultimate goal is to become a paramedic!"

This week's Student Spotlight is Maliki Anderson:

"I've always wanted to be in a career where I can help people when they need it most. That's what inspired me to pursue EMS. Being there for someone during one of the hardest moments of their life and knowing I can make a difference for both them and their family is what motivates me. Every call is an opportunity to provide care, comfort, and support. Although I love the idea of working in EMS, my long-term goal is to become a licensed therapist so I can continue helping people improve their lives in a different way."

This week's Student Spotlight is Robert Dielman

"Hello.

My name is Tyler “Robert” Dielman. Im 29 years old, a husband to my beautiful wife Sydney, and a father to the world’s most awesome yet rambunctious boys. What drew me to EMS was the sense of thrill of never knowing what the day might bring and a desire to do something good with my life. Something more than just making money for “the man.” After academy I intend to pursue a full time career in fire/EMS along with any other opportunities that come my way to serve my community."

This week's Student Spotlight is Paige Watkins.

"My name is Paige Watkins. EMS was never really a calling card for me when I was
younger. However, the more I grow, the more I realize that helping people is a commendable
goal of mine that is hard to turn away from. However, outside of class, my personal hobbies are
sewing, reading, crocheting, and gardening, maybe watching a little too much Emergency. I
hope with my education and willingness to help, that I become a future EMT for my community"

Corunna Area Ambulance Service Education Department

Student Spotlight Program

At the Corunna Area Ambulance Service Education Department, we believe that every student's journey deserves to be recognized. Our students come from diverse backgrounds, bringing unique experiences, dedication, and a shared commitment to serving their communities through Emergency Medical Services.

To celebrate their hard work and accomplishments, we are excited to launch our Student Spotlight series.

Each week, we will feature one of our current students, highlighting their story, career goals, reasons for pursuing EMS. The Student Spotlight is an opportunity for our community, instructors, classmates, and future students to get to know the incredible individuals who are preparing to become the next generation of EMS professionals.

Our goal is to recognize the commitment, perseverance, and passion our students demonstrate while inspiring others who may be considering a career in emergency medical services.

Be sure to follow our page each week as we introduce you to the outstanding students who are helping shape the future of EMS, one class at a time.

Because every great EMS provider has a story—and every story deserves to be told.

Some calls stay with you forever. Recently, two crews from Corunna Area Ambulance responded to a terrifying emergency involving a young child who was actively seizing and not breathing. Thanks to the rapid response, teamwork, training, and professionalism of our crews, this child is alive and doing well today.
Recently, the child’s family stopped by our ambulance base to personally thank the crews involved. They brought a heartfelt handwritten poster, Jimmy John's subs, and a basket full of goodies for our staff. To see this child smiling, alive, and able to thank some of the crew members in person is something words cannot fully describe. Moments like this are exactly why we do what we do.
At Corunna Area Ambulance, we train continuously so that when seconds matter most, our crews are prepared to act quickly and effectively. Positive outcomes like this are the result of dedication, teamwork, and countless hours of education and training.
While seeing our patients recover is truly all the thanks we need, recognition from patients and families means more than you know. These thoughtful gestures help remind our crews that the long hours, missed meals, sleepless nights, and difficult calls truly make a difference.
A huge job well done to:
• Paramedic Kathy Wissner
• EMT Katy Ann
• Paramedic Cameron Coleman
• EMT Chandler Barr
Thank you all for your commitment to serving our community with compassion, skill, and professionalism every single day. ❤️🚑

CELEBRATING 50 YEARS OF SERVICE: A LEGACY OF DEDICATION AND CARE!

This year marks a momentous milestone as we proudly celebrate 50 years of unwavering service, commitment, and compassion. Since our founding on May 27, 1975, Corunna Area Ambulance Service has stood as a pillar of support in our community-answering calls for help, providing lifesaving care, and being there when it mattered most.

What began as a small team with a big mission has grown into a trusted organization staffed by skilled, dedicated professionals who embody the very spirit of Emergency Medical Service. Over the decades, we've embraced innovation, weathered challenges, and witnessed extraordinary stories of courage, teamwork, and resilience.

As we reflect on our past and look toward the future, we honor every EMT, Paramedic, and community partner who helped build this legacy. This anniversary is not just a celebration of years-it's a tribute to the lives touched, the lives saved, and the deep-rooted bond between our service and the people we serve.

Here's to 50 years of excellence-and to many more ahead!

"Next to creating a life, the finest thing a man (or woman) can do is save one!"
-Abraham Lincoln
