- About Me:
- Like I said above, I was born into this... Both my mom & dad were members of the fire department and both were EMTs that worked for the original Canonsburg Ambulance Service (VFW 191). I grew up in the fire dept. and had many "2nd Dad's and Uncles" that soon gave me "brothers & sisters". I've always known that this was going to be a vital part of my life and will be for a very long time. At 14, I became an official member of my volunteer fire dept. and at 16, I became a PA Certified EMT. When I turned 18, I was finally able to run on the ambulances and became a volunteer at both Rostraver/West Newton Emergency Services and Tri-Community Ambulance. My mom and I continue to be members of Bentleyville Volunteer Fire Department and are both paid employees at TCA. My new dad is also in emergency services and he is a "triple threat". He's a volunteer firefighter at Valley Inn Fire Dept. & works as a Paramedic at both RWNES & TCA. To round out the third part, he used to work as a police officer and he also was in the Navy.
Currently, I am taking Paramedic training through Penn State Fayette and I couldn't be enjoying it more. Most of my precepting I'll get to do with my boys at Rostraver and then maybe some at TCA.
I may be a girly-girl that likes to wear make-up and get dressed up but I definitely know how to get down & dirty with my boys. I know my limitations and I strive for the highest in everything I do. And although many have their ideas of what females in emergency services truly are, I am proud to say that I am neither!
Anything else you may want to know... feel free to ask me and I'll more than happily try to answer your questions ; )
- Side Jobs or Other Organizations:
- I also am the cutest checkout girl on this side of the Valley... ; )
- Personal Site/Profile:
- http://www.myspace.com/amanda1133
- Top Issues Facing Responders:
- Internal Politics... enough said.
- I Love Being in Fire/EMS Because:
- the fun that I bring to those that are burnt-out or tired of their job. I have such a bubbly personality, in general, but the fun and energy that I bring to everything because for the most part, all of this is new to me. They have such a good time teaching me and showing me the ropes and breaking me into EMS.
