Continuing the Crook County News Since 1884
May 15-21 is the 47th annual celebration of EMS Week. EMS week is the time to learn and understand more about and honor those front-line heroes dedicated to providing emergency medicine care.
In the years of 2020 and 2021, COVID–19 took the focus of so many parts of our lives it was hard to celebrate the everyday heroes. Now, reflecting back on all the sacrifices, hardships and the never-wavering commitment to helping others it’s clear that EMS has, and will continue to, rise to the challenge.
And that’s the 2022 EMS Week theme nationwide: “EMS: Rising to the Challenge”.
Crook County WY EMS is made up of four different and separate services: Hulett, Moorcroft, Pine Haven and CCMSD EMS in Sundance. These services are made up of volunteers and full-time career staff.
One thing is the same no matter where the service is and that is their dedication and caring for others. We send our best wishes for the constant safety and good health of all EMS personnel on the front lines who continue to respond, support and care for our communities.
