#BarriePolice mourn with our good friends and neighbours @simcoecountyPS as they pause and reflect on the memory and dedicated service of their esteemed co-worker who passed away from #cancer. Our thoughts are with them and her family at this most difficult time.

[Amanda Root @amandaroot]

An absolute #legend. Congratulations Randy!

[COSParamedic Service @simcoecountyPS]

Congratulations to #Paramedic Randy Stone, who celebrated the start of his retirement today and seen here receiving his last call. We are so grateful for all his work and dedication to our #community and our #profession. Thank you Randy, we wish you all the best.

Shameful... Just shameful. Once again @fordnation you have sunk to a new low.

Another comment by @fordnation to prove his ignorance and incompetence. Paramedics are highly trained medical professionals. What a slap in the face to Paramedics that worked tirelessly throughout this pandemic. We are exhausted and need is real leadership from our government!

Do us a favour, don’t ask us what’s the worst thing we’ve ever seen when we meet. We don’t want to see it again in our minds.

Recently, I had the opportunity to address our #EMS recruits.

After stressing how essentially vital their service is, I asked them to never forget how important they are, because they won’t hear it as often as they should. #STL

@Barrie411 Thank you! Us @Opseulocal303 #paramedics appreciate your support always.
It is nice to know people hear us and stand with us!
#VaccinateUs

[Amanda Root @amandaroot]

I'm someone who has spent 2 wks alone in a hotel.
I'm someone who may end up right back here.
Why?
Because as a #paramedic
I'm not considered #essential
I'm not considered #frontline
I'm not considered a #healthcareworker

So I will not be #vaccinated
Thanks @fordnation

Even while we work on the frontline, we are not being recognized as Frontline Workers. We know the need is great, but we treating and transporting Covid positive patients, and we are still told to wait our turn. So we wait. #paramedics #frontlineworkers #ems #EssentialWorkers

[OPSEU/SEFPO Paramedics & Ambulance Communications @OPSEUAmbDiv]

Our UNVACCINATED #Simcoe Paramedics will be there, risking themselves to help, because that’s what they must do

Ontario tells hospitals "to prepare for transfer of patients..." Who will do the majority of these transfers? #paramedics. @OPSEUAmbDiv @Opseulocal303 The plan to vaccinate paramedics is not clear. #onpoli @fordnation @celliottability
Time is up. Paramedics need vaccines now.

[Amanda Root @amandaroot]

Last night I got to watch my supervisor do his last call. Greg Bruce, it was an honour and a privilege to work for and with you. You will be missed!

[COSParamedic Service @simcoecountyPS]

Congratulations to #supervisor Greg Bruce on his retirement, many thanks to #GeorgianCACC for helping with Greg’s last call! #retirement #lastcall @CSPSChief @Opseulocal303

Thank you @fordnation @celliottability for agreeing that Ontario’s #paramedics, #respiratorytherapsists and other #frontline #healthcare workers should be recognized. Thank you to @OPSEUAmbDiv and @CACOMedic and others for pushing for equality.
Now where to donate to?
