On July 23, 1974 a small bomb was placed on a British Airways flight from Belfast to London. On board were 85 passengers, of whom I was one. The Provisional IRA took responsibility for placing the bomb. The plane made an emergency landing at Manchester Airport/2

Today we recognize #CommunityParamedics (CP). They help members of York Region struggling to bridge gaps in their care. We offer various programs of help which reduces the need to call 911. #PSWeek
Working in this role outside of the 911 system we have the opportunity to connect with some incredible people living in our community. K. Grant's experience in CP has been incredibly challenging & rewarding. "It has easily been the highlight of my 20+ year career." #PSWeek2022
A. Alibhai loves helping individuals navigate Ontario’s vast health care system. An example is our CP at clinic program that runs daily in various senior’s buildings across York Region.
"Prior to this position, I did not have a grasp of the challenges users of 911 face."
There are many types of specialty paramedic units throughout Canada. At #YorkRegion we have a Special Response Unit made up of staff that do extensive high-risk emergency training. These members can attend to HAZMAT and tactical calls to name a few. #KeepingYRSafe#PSWeekSRU
#Scheduling is critical for YRPS to operate effectively. Christine helps make sure the service has coverage during scheduled and unscheduled absences allowing for citizens of our Region to have peace of mind that we will be there for them when they need us. #PSWeek2022
Cheryl is a member of our administration support team. She assists those that phone and email for community program support. She is proud to be a member York Region Paramedic Services, especially when she gets to pass on appreciation notes from the public. #PSWeekSupportServices
There are many units that support the behind the scenes of Paramedic services. We are #thankful for all our team members in Administration, Capital Delivery, Data & Continuous Quality Improvement, Fleet, Logistics, Policy & Planning, Procurement, and Scheduling. #PSWeek
