On May 18, in Columbus, Ohio ACEP teamed up with the Ohio Division of EMS and the State Board of Emergency Medical, Fire, and Transportation Services (EMFTS) to host the 16th Annual EMS Star of Life Awards ceremony. The ceremony was established to celebrate Ohio’s outstanding first responders, reunite EMS personnel with the patients they saved, and honor Ohio's EMS heroes.
Emergency physicians know how critical our nation’s EMS professionals are, and Ohio ACEP is proud to help recognize their life-saving work. Congratulations to all the departments and EMS personnel who received honors!
