Calgary welcomes first responders as they graduate from city's program yyc
“It’s a very exciting day for us,” Sue Henry, chief of the city’s emergency management department and Calgary 9-1-1, told Postmedia, adding that the new entrants will supply the city’s team with “incredible horsepower” to answer calls and “keep citizens and front-line responders safe.
Johnson said one of the main challenges of being a first responder is addressing someone’s crisis. “It’s very intense,” he said. “There’s a lot of adrenalin when you take some of these high-pressure calls.” “This person’s here relying on me, and I’m not in that situation myself, even as stressful as my call is,” he said.
