Thank 'em

It all happened so fast. You called. They came. They helped. And they were gone. And you didn’t get a chance to say thanks. Now’s the time to pay tribute to over 4,000 life-saving paramedics across Alberta.

Shortly after midnight on Monday morning, September 28th, my husband called the ambulance as he found me to be unresponsive in our bed, due to type 1 diabetes low blood sugar. I was completely unaware, and only recall the paramedic calling my name post glucagon provision. My husband and I are pretty darn grateful, and thank you so very much!

I’m so incredibly grateful to the three Paramedics who came to our home on Sept. 25 and took my son to the Stollery. They were so kind, gentle and caring, and truly advocated for him. They stayed with him until he got a room. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I’ll never forget their kindness.

I had to take an ambulance to the foothills hospital today (October 1st). They made me feel so at ease and even had me laughing so much that I almost forgot about feeling out of sorts.

For Gio, Jon, and Dan. I can't thank each of you enough for your expertise, kindness, and compassion in caring for me on September 9, 2026. I was so sick with a bowel obstruction and all that encompasses, including agonizing pain. You stabilized me, gave me meds to treat the nausea and vomiting, and spoke reassuringly to me. God bless you all!

The dream team responded to my mom’s call for help on Friday. She fell and fractured several bones. Aubrey and Chris put a smile of her face during an extremely stressful situation. Made her feel safe and sound. Thanks so much!

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the Paramedic and subsequent crew who attended my husband in an extremely complex rural location. For their care and expertise in a less than easy situation in an off road forest location. Eternal gratitude for their professionalism and humanity. Absolute heroes!

Big thanks to the 3 Paramedics who helped when I had a kneecap dislocation. Parand provided emotional support and was able to make me laugh through pain. Jordan explained everything thoroughly and maintained patient dignity by putting a blanket over me. And Jonas' calm demeanor made me feel completely safe. Truly grateful for the utmost comfort and care

On September 4, 2026, I called into EMS for a horrible pain in my head. The paramedic, Crystal, was so sweet to me while I was so scared. I was out of it and was asking her the most random questions, she continued to comfort me. I’m a lot better now, she made me feel heard when I felt so helpless. Thank you so much Crystal!

I want to thank Lily, Tye and Al from the bottom of my heart for the care and attention that was given to my Aunt this evening. They all showed the utmost attention and truly wanted to make sure that I understood what they were doing for her, to better understand my aunt’s situation not only for the emergency but how her life has been.

On September 3rd in Calmar Alberta, I had an ambulance dispatched to my house. The two paramedics that came to my house went far above and beyond the call of duty and took immensely good care of me and treated me with the level of humanity that I will never forget. At a time when I was extremely low. I cannot thank you enough.

I had to make an early morning emergency call a couple of weeks ago after discovering my aunt had had a fall. Tory and Jeremy arrived and handled everything with gentleness, tact and great sensitivity and all of us in the family are incredibly grateful to them both.

On Aug 15 my mom went into sudden, life-threatening anaphylaxis. She was able to call 911 moments before losing consciousness and Paramedics Mel, Hadjer, Danny and Jeff came to her aid. Their rapid assessment, treatment and management were exceptional, and undoubtedly saved her life. Our family is profoundly grateful for the care she received.
