Building the EMS Workforce: EMT-B Academy Milestone
I’m excited to share that our EMT-B Academy achieved a 100% pass rate on the PSE (hands-on portion)! Based on their strong performance, I’m confident we’ll see the same success on the written exam.
A special thank you to Ellie S. for her dedication to the program and for working toward her CLI certification throughout this process. Her commitment has been instrumental in supporting our students and their success!
This accomplishment is a great example of how STHCS continues to strengthen the EMS workforce in our region, ensuring well-trained providers are ready to serve our communities.

Improving Health Equity Through 1115 Waiver Engagement
I’m pleased to share that Lacey recently conducted outreach at a local food pantry to help educate community members about the 1115 Medicaid Waiver.

The 1115 Waiver is designed to transform how care is delivered in New York State by focusing on social drivers of health, improving access to services, and reducing health disparities.
Connecting with residents in trusted community spaces like the food pantry is an important step in helping individuals understand the resources available to them.
This outreach is another way STHCS is actively engaging with our community to improve health equity and ensure that those who need support most are informed and connected to care.
