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.

I want to thank the crew of the EMS unit, that responded to my daughter's emergency. They were all SO Very polite and funny! It made the tense trip much easier. I would like to send a Special Thank You to Zack, Nadia and Alex! If we get more Paramedics that are as pleasant and experienced as they were, Calgary is in good hands!

Thank you Logan and Brad for your incredible compassion, empathy, and humour during a stressful time. From entering our home to dropping me off at the ER, you never treated me like just another patient. Your honesty and care went above and beyond. You’d make ideal mentors for recruits!

I sincerely apologize for this late Thank You note. Please send to paramedics Sam and John. I had a critical event, and Sam came my home late Friday night. My partner and I absolutely adore paramedics Sam and John. Their positivity, kindness, laughter and expertise was outstanding. They left an impressive impact! Thanks! Martha and Jude

Last night I was in a car accident. Honestly, I was lost in panic, anxiety and pain. The way Lily and Tye were was amazing. They knew what they were doing and make sure that I was ok and gave me all the treatment I needed before getting to the hospital. Keep it up for the good and amazing job. Thank you. DeDe

I’d like to thank paramedics Jan and Marliis who treated me on Friday October 2, 2026. I was riding my bike downtown and was hit by a pickup, badly fracturing my wrist, concussion, and multiple bruises, cuts and bumps. They took great care of me, transported me to Foothills, and made sure I was admitted and in good hands. Thank you!

2016 overdose of painkillerswent to U of A Hospital in time that I'm here at 71 years of age. A " thank you" doesn't quite do it. This is something I have long wanted to formally mention. At 67, I came out as gay, letterly, a younger paramedics shared that she was in the LGBTQ community to help me, and I was thrilled. Keep up the good work you do

On Oct 17, 2026 an ambulance responded to a bus on St. Albert trail and 131 ave, I was the operator and was busy communicating to my team and didn't get to thank the crew for their quick response and professionalism. Thank you and stay safe.

The two paramedics that came to attend to an overdose were absolutely amazing. These two people are absolutely perfect for the job! Super friendly, compassionate, non judgmental and more than happy to educate me and explain exactly what they were doing. Both took the time to make sure we were comfortable and confident before leaving.

I am writing to express my sincere gratitude to the ambulance crew members who assisted me following an assault and fall during my Thanksgiving gathering. Both guys were professional, polite, and compassionate. They ensured I was comfortable and received appropriate pain medication for the long journey from Dover to the campus.

We've been coming to enjoy Jasper for many years. Arriving on September 7th this year we set-up the trailer went for an ebike ride. Returning to the Whistler site the bike fell into a hole, throwing me over the bars and breaking my neck. From that point I was attended to by local Paramedics, Zandra and her partner who did an amazing job.

We’d like to recognize Jeff, a Paramedic who attended two calls at the Calgary Zoo. He was professional, friendly, compassionate, and reassuring to both guests and families. His willingness to assist with a second call and his personable nature truly stood out. Our Security team sincerely appreciates his outstanding service and kindness.

I want to say Thank You to Scott and Niel from Claresholm EMS for their wonderful service on Oct 11, 2026. From the moment they arrived at Claresholm General hospital, until they left us at the children's hospital, I felt comfortable and supported. My 4-year-old was handled with such care. I appreciate everything you guys did. You two are amazing.

Last night in Calgary, my family had to call for help. Shayla helped us out on the phone and was able to keep us calm and give us options. Ryan showed up and was absolutely amazing handling the situation. What was an emergency ended up feeling like coffee with a friend. All while getting much needed help! Thank you!

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.
