IAEP Local R1-294 Hunters Ambulance member and call taker Kurt Kemmesies Jr. has been chosen as a recipient of this year’s EMS Communications Award.
The award, given out annually by the Connecticut EMS Advisory Board at the EMSPRO/FIREPRO Conference, honors recipients’ professional poise and dedication to providing excellent 911 care.
“You are a true first responder and how you handle the call has a direct impact on outcomes,” wrote South Central EMS Council President William Fitzmaurice in a letter to Kemmesies notifying him of his win. “Communications personnel are the unsung heroes of our first responders.”
Kemmesies will receive his award at this year’s conference on October 24 at the Foxwoods Resort Casino in Connecticut. He is invited to give a short speech upon receipt.
Congratulations Kurt!
