September 11, 2001 — We Remember. 🇺🇸

Twenty-five years later, we continue to remember the nearly 3,000 innocent lives lost on September 11, 2001, and honor the countless families, first responders, military members, and communities forever changed by that day.

We remember the courage of those who ran toward danger while others were running away. We remember the strength of those who endured unimaginable loss. And we remember the unity, compassion, and resilience that brought Americans together in the days that followed.

May we never forget the lives that were taken, the heroes who gave everything, and the families who continue to carry their loss.

We remember. We honor. We will never forget. 🇺🇸

Please help us by congratulating one of our newest paramedics, Brooke Chenowith!

Brooke has been with us since 2024. She has successfully completed the paramedic program at the University of Arkansas Pulaski Technical College.

Earning this certification is a rigorous process with having to balance class, ER clinical’s, weekly tests, managing ride times, obtaining patient contacts, passing a national exam to obtain her license all while being a devoted wife and mother working full time as an EMT on B shift. Her hard work and dedication has paid off!!

We here at Pope County EMS are extremely proud of her accomplishments and look forward to watching her continue to grow as a provider and a member of our family.

Today, our very own Cheyenne Nogosek had the absolute pleasure of visiting the kiddos at Happy Campers Preschool and Clubhouse!

Cheyenne brought the ambulance by to give the children an up close tour and talk to them about the life saving medical care we can perform right on the scene and on the go. Educating our youngest community members helps them understand that the ambulance and our crew are there to help them feel safe in an emergency.

Thank you so much to Happy Campers Preschool and Clubhouse for having us. We had a blast!

As EMS Week comes to a close, we would like to recognize every member of our agency who helps serve and protect our community each day.
Emergency medical services is built on teamwork.

From those responding to emergencies in the field, rescue personnel, mechanics, office staff, educators, administrators, and support personnel. Every role is essential in ensuring our community receives the care and service it depends on.

While the public may only see the ambulance arrive on scene, it takes the dedication and hard work of an entire team behind the scenes to make that response possible. Every individual contributes to the mission, and every contribution matters.

We are proud to serve this community and grateful for the commitment, professionalism, and compassion shown by all members of our agency.

Thank you for supporting EMS and recognizing the people who answer the call in so many different ways.

Today we recognize someone whose work may not always be seen, but whose impact is felt every time our crews answer the call,
Ron Hearne.

Behind every response is a dependable ambulance, and behind that dependability is Ron. Day in and day out, he works tirelessly to make sure our trucks and equipment are safe, reliable, and ready when our community needs us most. Long before the tones drop and long after the calls are over, Ron is working quietly behind the scenes, making sure our crews can respond without hesitation.

What makes Ron especially unique is that he is also an EMT. He knows what it means to be on the other side of that radio, responding when seconds matter and lives are on the line. He understands that the work he does in the shop is about so much more than fixing a vehicle it is about protecting the crews who serve inside it and helping ensure patients receive the care they need without delay.

That kind of understanding, dedication, and servant’s heart cannot be taught. It is who Ron is.

His work may not always be in the spotlight, but it is woven into every call we answer and every life we touch. Because of Ron’s commitment, our crews can roll out with confidence, knowing the equipment beneath them is ready for whatever the day may bring.

Ron, thank you for the countless hours, the hard work, and the care you pour into this agency. You are an essential part of this family and this mission, and we are deeply grateful for all that you do for our crews and the community we serve.
