When almost all frontline staff tell the public, the media & anyone who will listen that EMS leadership is CORRUPT, maybe someone in a position of power needs to take action!

Is that staff have been saying for YEARS that the top 3-4 tiers of EMS need to be replaced. If they are good ppl, they will earn their way back in.
We also know that EMS is small & other leaders have likely been complacent in some of the other unethical practices occurring. 2/

An example? The Chief Paramedic’s wife, stalking FB in order to make complaints abt EMS frontline staff. Causing the staff members extreme stress, suspensions & discipline. What did the staff do to deserve this? Told the public the TRUTH abt the EMS crisis. 3/
A 🧵 1) This morning a long time friend and paramedic went into cardiac arrest while at Airdrie UCC. UCC calls 911 for EMS support for these events. #ableg #abhealth #ahs #ems #ahsems
2) There were no available ambulances in Airdrie to respond to our brother. The responding units came from Calgary. UCC calls us for these events because we are more familiar with running cardiac arrests. That’s why they have paramedics like him working there during the nights
3) It has finally happened. A colleague, a mentor, and a brother has fallen and there wasn’t one of his own close enough to help. We have been sounding the alarm about the EMS system for years, and now its inadequacies may have prevented us from saving our own
