🏊‍♀️ Summer is here and water safety is a priority! Do you know what to do when you're called for a drowning child?🚑 Join our prehospital education series on Wednesday so we can learn together!

When a child experienced a sudden cardiac event, bystanders immediately jumped into action—performing CPR until #DCsBravest from DC Fire and EMS arrived. On Wednesday, @ChildrensNatl for Children's Day of EMS week 2025 honored the members who responded.

[DC Fire and EMS Department @dcfireems]

Gabe Gan has devoted countless hours to coordinating our efforts with Children's National Hospital to launch and sustain the PediPART study at DC Fire and EMS.
Congratulations Gabe on being honored during EMS Week 2025. #DCsBravest @ChildrensNatl
