Spirit Lake EMS Employee Spotlight!
Meet Brielle Wakefield
I have been in EMS since 2018. I took my EMT class while I was in high school and fell in love with the field of emergency medicine. In 2022 I became licensed as a paramedic and currently work for Spirit Lake Ambulance and Harvey ambulance. Last December, I was able to obtain my Instructor license and will be teaching an EMT class coming January. I enjoy the challenges of EMS and the privilege of attending people when they are in need of care. This job has taught me how to be a leader and has helped me to grow in empathy. When I am not on the ambulance you might catch me on a mission trip or solving a mystery with my parents on game night.
P.S. - I highly recommend you get involved with your local ambulance or fire department. You will meet some compassionate, resilient people and come away with invaluable experience.
