The varied schedule allowed me to catch up to one of Cleveland’s finest Paramedics – Jim Willson!
The man, the myth, the legend, Commander Jim Willson! In lieu of posting an embarrassingly old picture of Cmdr Willson, I figured this one is best. Plus he knows too many stories.
I remember first meeting Jim at the ER. Years later, I remember meeting him again during EMS week as a Cleveland EMS Commander. Shortly thereafter, I sat and co-chaired the UASI EMS Functional Committee…Jim was always there.
(Funny note: I remember spelling his name wrong for about a decade until I got it right. Jeez.)
Jim’s career at Cleveland spans decades including finishing his career with Cleveland Public Safety as the Emergency Operations Center Manager. Almost every time I was in the EOC, Jim was there. I can’t think of a more dedicated EMS professional who’s been there/done that.
So glad to catch up to my friend Jim Wilson…I mean Willson.
Where is @rusnivek?
