Spotlight: Kate Smith
Today, we recognize Kate Smith, a paramedic, educator, and mentor whose contributions to EMS have made a lasting difference in South Carolina and beyond.

Kate’s EMS journey began right out of high school as a combat medical specialist in the National Guard. She went on to serve with Darlington County and Lamar Rescue, earning her paramedic certification in 1997. However, her true passion lies in EMS education and shaping the next generation of providers.

For decades, Kate has trained and mentored EMS professionals at every level, serving as an instructor for the American Heart Association and the National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians, the education coordinator for PeeDee Regional EMS, and since 2009, the professional standards and training officer for Florence County EMS. Her leadership has played a key role in EMS education and training statewide.

Kate’s impact extends beyond the classroom. She leads by example, sets the highest standards of professionalism, and dedicates herself to strengthening the EMS community. Her influence lives on through every provider she has trained, every patient they care for, and every life they save.
