On November 7th, our Podcast was dedicated to discussing the first Wisconsin EMS Legislative Day at the State Capitol, Madison. Our guests were John Eich, Executive Director for the Wisconsin Office of Rural Health and Dana Sechler, Director/Chief Baraboo District Ambulance Service. The event, coordinated by John, Dana and many others, was attended by over 100 EMS providers, directors and leaders from across the state. In total, the one-day event produced meetings with 31 out of 33 state senators and 57 out of 98 state representatives.
According to John Eich, “The turnout was fantastic for a first-time event, and the stories we heard after the legislative visits were powerful. Telling the EMS story, one legislator at a time.”
