In this episode of NOON we have Christopher.
He started his fire service career on September 11th, 2001 and the lessons began immediately. Christopher shares how a quadruple fatality early in his career shaped the way he approaches hard calls, mental health, and longevity in EMS.
We talk about cultural competence when serving Amish communities, the importance of family-centered care, and how maturity changes the way you practice medicine. Christopher opens up about overcoming fear in pediatric emergencies, how a neonatal resuscitation course shifted his confidence, and why he’s now focused on helping other providers lower their “pucker factor.”
From pediatric readiness and conference stages to building real community online, this conversation is about growth: clinically, emotionally, and professionally.

In this episode of NOON we have Sarah Vance.
Sarah is an ICU nurse, critical care educator, and fierce patient advocate. She shares how staying at the bedside keeps her grounded, sharp, and connected to the real challenges nurses face every shift.
We talk about going from almost becoming a Spanish teacher to stepping into the ICU during H1N1 and later COVID-19, the emotional weight of those years, and why confidence in nursing only comes from stepping into hard things. Sarah opens up about advocating for patients when it wasn’t popular, protecting her license, and why education should open doors, not close them.

In this episode of NOON we have Mike Worthen.
Mike has been in emergency services since 1989, he worked in private ambulance, fire department, as a flight medic, and even time at the County Coroner’s Office. More than three decades in this profession have shaped how he sees both the job and its emotional cost.
We talk about the weight first responders carry, how detachment can protect us but still follow us home, and why culturally competent mental health support is critical in our field.

This week on NOON, Sam sits down with Ryan Chavez, an EMT turned Nurse Practitioner who now works as a solo emergency provider. Ryan talks about expanded scope, making critical decisions alone, performing high acuity procedures, and what it’s really like being the only provider in the room when things go sideways.
We get into career progression, responsibility, dark humor, and the moments that stay with you long after the shift ends.
