JOHNSON NEW EMS DIRECTOR - "It Is Always A Challenge"

(09/26/2003)

Calhoun has a new Emergency Medical Services director. Grantsville resident Josh Johnson, was selected by the EMS Board last week to replace Randy Burgess, who recently resigned. Johnson, who is a paramedic, was on the job yesterday at the Mt. Zion headquarters. He has been involved with emergency services since 1996. "It is always a challenge to provide 24-hour service to Calhoun from both of our stations," he said. "We hope to continue our history of responding quickly and professionally," he said. Johnson said he is looking at improvements that need to be made within the system. "Calhoun has crooked roads and rough terrain, and getting there quickly and safely is a challenge. We are continuing to look at our training and equipment needs," concluded Johnson.
