During a pandemic-driven volunteer EMT shortage in Sackets Harbor, New York, a group of teens stepped up to fill the gap.
"We went from not even having our licenses to saving people's lives": Group of young adults step up amid EMT shortage in New York townWhen people call for an ambulance in Sackets Harbor, New York — and the crew shows up at their door — almost everyone has the same reaction."'You're the EMT?!'" Grayden Brunet said of how people have reacted.
Fortunately, in Sackets Harbor, desperation led to inspiration. In New York State you can become an EMT at 17, and you can start assisting when you're even younger. When a group of local high schoolers heard that, they decided to step up, took the required training and resuscitated the department."Being able to help those people – I really like that," Reese Mono said.
