Thank You! That is what the New York State Bureau of Emergency Medical Services would like to say to all our EMS Providers during EMS Week 2022.
EMS Week is just a few weeks away and we would like your help again this year recognizing those EMS providers who have gone above and beyond.

EMS Week 2022 ~ Nominations for EMS Team / Provider Recognition | Survey Builder (ny.gov)
The nominations will remain open during EMS Week until we have met our maximum number, so we encourage agencies to submit early, but remember, you can only submit once.
Nominations should only take a few minutes to submit and can be done from a computer or smart phone device.
Thank you to every NYS EMS Provider, we really appreciate all the work you are doing every day and especially during these very challenging times.
Happy EMS Week!
