About Us
At The Trained Paramedics Department, we are dedicated to advancing emergency medical services through high-quality education and hands-on training.
Our goal is simple: to equip EMS providers with the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed to respond effectively in critical situations.
With a commitment to excellence and a passion for service, we offer programs designed to meet the needs of both seasoned professionals and those new to emergency care.
Together, we strive to build a stronger, safer community—one trained responder at a time.
About Me
I'm a Nationally registered Paramedic with 34 years of field experience throughout the Fredericksburg area. I have practiced as a volunteer as well as a career paramedic, serving in various leadership and training positions over the years. For the past 22 years, I have enjoyed a challenging career as a Flight Paramedic enhancing my paramedic skills to provide critical care to over 1500 patients. Throughout my career, I have always devoted a great deal of time and effort to the education and training of others in emergency medical services to share my passion for providing the best possible care to the patients we serve. I strive to stay aware of new and emerging data to remain current on the best practices available to improve survivability for the patients we serve.
