Rodriguez Kicks Off Emergency Medical Services Week
Assemblymember Freddie Rodriguez kicked off a week-long celebration of Emergency Medical Services (EMS) workers by honoring a group of EMS providers during today’s Assembly Floor Session. The group of dedicated EMS personnel represented the over 80,000 emergency medical services workers throughout California.
The State Assembly also approved Rodriguez’ Assembly Concurrent Resolution 84 which establishes the week of May 18th through May 24th as Emergency Medical Services Week in California. This week coincides with the 40th Anniversary of National Emergency Medical Services Week which began in 1974 to draw attention to the sacrifice, dedication and commitment of Emergency Medical Personnel.
