First responders like EMS professionals are often on the receiving end of the calls we wish we didn’t have to make when an emergency hits. A job that not only sees emergencies but also the beginning of new lives, EMS responders support medical transitions of all kinds. Anthony Almojera has witnessed the full spectrum of these medical calls throughout his time as an EMS paramedic in New York City, a job that was greatly amplified when the pandemic hit. As the vice president for Union Local 3621 and an FDNY EMS Lieutenant, Anthony is also a mental healthcare advocate and support system for his fellow EMS professionals.
