[0:00] It's one of the most
rewarding things I've ever done.
[0:21] I was looking for a job
[0:22] that could challenge me
mentally, physically
[0:25] and that had a camaraderie
and teamwork feel to it.
[0:28] It's an environment
where you're going to come in
[0:31] and you're going to get
mentored.
[0:32] People are going to help
[0:33] you grow professionally
and personally as well.
[0:37] I chose to work
for the city of Woodbury
[0:38] because I started here
as a cadet, and in the past year
[0:41] and a half, I've completed EMT,
the full paramedic program.
[0:45] This is a fortunate department
to work with.
[0:47] There's a lot of opportunity
[0:48] for career advancements,
[0:50] and there's a lot of support
around the education.
[0:53] And so I really do think that
the city is very supportive
[0:56] of pushing you to be your best
firefighter paramedic.
[0:58] Feels like a family, honestly.
[1:00] All of our captains are a part
of every training we do.
[1:03] We have daily relationships with
command staff and the chief.
[1:06] Culture that we've established,
[1:08] the standards
that we uphold ourselves to.
[1:10] So that way, the city
[1:12] and the citizens are getting
the best possible care
[1:15] and fire protection
that we can possibly provide.
[1:19] A lot of people think of us
helping others,
[1:21] but I think the daily things
we do to help
[1:23] the community is so rewarding
to us.
[1:25] The city of Woodbury is
where I live. It's home to me.
[1:28] I take pride and passion
in the community.
[1:31] It's a job
that gives a lot back.
[1:34] Reach out today
for more information
[1:36] on the opportunities available
here at Woodbury EMS Fire.
[1:39] It's a great community
and great place to work.
[1:41] We look forward
to you joining our team.
