Huron County Paramedics Jasmine Thompson, Miranda Griedanus, Andrew Newman, Denise Richard, and Sam Barlow.
As 2020 comes to a close, the County of Huron is recognizing the important work done by the region’s paramedics.
A specialized “Community Paramedicine Team” was created this year, providing additional COVID-19 care support for the community.
The five paramedics on the team received additional training, including palliative care education.
The CPT also provided over 300 influenza vaccinations to targeted groups, and provided COVID-19 swabbing for pre-admission to hospices, as well as suspected cases of the novel coronavirus.
“The County thanks the paramedic team, and all frontline heroes, for the work they’re doing to prevent and slow the spread COVID-19 in Huron County.”
