From Regional Field Coordinator, Vivian Delts:
Calling all providers and supervisors! It’s Regional Awards time again. Time to nominate one of your exceptional providers to compete for the REMS Regional EMS Awards. Your nominee may be the one to represent the region on the State level. I have reviewed your websites and noted the in-house awards you give to your agency’s providers. You have already pointed out greatness in the ranks! This year you have been provided with two ways to nominate your candidates. You can nominate online or download a paper copy and email it to the Council in Word format.

They will attend the ceremony along with their nominator and feel pride for a job well done. Please nominate your exceptional candidates today! This is your opportunity to let your providers know that their hard work and commitment to this tough field does not go unnoticed. The deadline is May 15th. I look forward to receiving and submitting our area’s finest.
