Rural Healthcare Worker Lisa Fensick: An Everyday Hero Saving Lives
First responders are often on the front lines of health care, and their impact to rural communities has been immeasurable. For Lisa Fensick of Seaford, Delaware, this impact drove her desire to become a nationally registered Emergency Medical Technician (NREMT).
“I became a firefighter and EMT, volunteering my time,” Fensick said. “All day long and all night long, I would ride on the ambulance or in fire trucks. Firefighting is one of the most exciting things in the world. And being an EMT is the most rewarding thing.”
