Heroes Honored at EMS Star of Life Awards

On May 24 in Columbus, Ohio ACEP teamed up with the Ohio Division of EMS and the State Board of Emergency Medical, Fire, and Transportation Services (EMFTS) for the 17th Annual EMS Star of Life Awards ceremony. The Star of Life Awards were established to celebrate Ohio’s outstanding first responders, reunite EMS personnel with the patients they saved, and honor Ohio’s EMS heroes.
