Greg Robinson and Kelly Snipes Win Paramedic Competition
By Lanny Bernard, Director, EMS
As everyone knows, this is Greg’s 10th time in the finals and 4th
time to win. Even though we all know Kelly has been a paramedic for years, he
only has had his patch for 4 months. Both had tremendous odds against them. I
cannot tell you how proud I am of them both. I believe one of the things that
sets them apart was they did triage (sort & prioritize patients) on the six
patients. No other team did. The other teams all started treating patients
immediately and checked and rechecked the same patients several times. The guy
who made the announcement said that in years past, it has been real close. He
did not say that it was this year, leading me to believe that it was not.
Congratulations to Greg and Kelly. They have worked hard to be the best and they
proved it again this year. I also want to congratulate their spouses, Michele
and Traci, for their support of Greg and Kelly. It really stood out tonight how
Greg and Kelly represent LCEMS. We are proud that they do!!
