Darien EMS -
Post 53
I volunteer as an EMT at my local emergency medical services, helping to staff 3 ambulances that serve the town 24 / 7 / 365.
I became a nationally registered (and CT licensed) Emergency Medical Technician in my Sophomore year of high school, and I started driving the ambulances by my Junior year of high school. I have continued to take shifts ever since.
