🚑🎉 Paramedic Success #11! 🎉🚑

Congratulations to Nick Tammeling, the 11th graduate from our 2024–2025 Paramedic Cohort to pass the NREMT! Nick successfully passed the National Registry today, 2/25/26, joining 10 of his classmates in achieving this incredible milestone. ✅

Nick’s confidence grew tremendously throughout the program. He was committed to always doing his best — and when things didn’t go his way, he truly “failed forward.” He stayed after class to ask questions, sought clarification on lectures, and spent extra time in the lab making sure his skills were solid. That work ethic paid off.

👏 We at Methodist are proud of Nick’s accomplishments and excited to see what the future holds for him as a Paramedic.
Congratulations, Nick! Your hard work has paid off!

🎉🚑 Paramedic Success #10! 🚑🎉

Congratulations to Jake Balousek, who has officially become the 10th student from our 2024–2025 Paramedic Cohort to pass the NREMT on his FIRST attempt! ✅

Jake was a quiet but incredibly determined student. Whenever a test or skill didn’t go his way, he didn’t stop, he went back to work until he mastered it. That persistence and dedication showed throughout the entire program, and in the end, it led to success on the National Registry.

👏 Great job, Jake! We’re proud of your accomplishment and excited to see where your future in EMS takes you!

Huge congratulations to Logan MacCormack, who has officially become the 9th student from our 2024–2025 Paramedic Cohort to pass the NREMT! Logan passed the exam on January 22—an outstanding accomplishment! ✅

Logan was an excellent student who consistently challenged himself to better understand paramedicine and excelled in every area of the program. He pushed himself through each phase, always striving to improve and grow as a clinician. That dedication showed every step of the way.

👏 We are incredibly proud of Logan and all that he has accomplished. This success comes as no surprise—we always knew he could do it!

Congratulations, Logan! The future is bright, and we can’t wait to see where this career takes you.
