PROCLAMATION
North Carolina has developed one of the finest Emergency Medical Services (EMS) programs in the
nation since it was created by the General Assembly in 1973. The progess and growth of EMS have
resulted in better equipped and designed ambulances, improved personnel training, more efficient
emergency departments, and simplified public access.
All North Carolinians can be proud of our emergency medical cystem which provides a life-saving
treatment and care twenty-four hours a day. This is made possible by the dedicated team effort of
emergency medical tehnicians, paramedics, emergency department physicians and nurses who received
specialized training to respond quickly and efficiently to emergencies.
Thousands of citizens volunteer their time to provide this invaluable service. In addition,
many North Carolinians have been trained in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in order to help
others during a medical emergency. To recognize and honor this dedication and service, we set aside
a special period to observe this great contribution to our people and state.
! NOW, THEREFORE, the Iredell County Board of Commissioners joins with the Honorable James G.
Martin, Governor of the State of North Carolina, to proclaim the period beginning September 21
through September 27, 1986, as "Emergency Medical Services Week" in North Carolina, and especially
in Iredell County, and dedicates this observance to those individuals whose tireless and selfless
efforts provide critical lifesaving medical care to our citizens.
