🎉 Another Paramedic Success! 🎉

Congratulations to Desiree Watts, our 7th student from the 2024–2025 Paramedic Cohort to successfully pass the NREMT 🚑✨

Desiree came into the program inquisitive and eager to learn, and she never stopped pushing herself. She worked hard to understand the material and continually strived to become a better patient advocate. Her willingness to identify areas for growth—and then put in the work—set her apart.

I never doubted that Desiree would become a Paramedic. Her tenacity and determination are exactly what led to her success.

👏 Congratulations, Desiree! We are proud of you and excited to see the great things you’ll do in EMS.

"In EMS education, every lesson is a gift—Thanksgiving reminds us to be grateful for those preparing to save lives."
