It is time to recognize the best in the ODEMSA Region by nominating someone for one of the ODEMSA Regional EMS Awards!
For over 20 years, the Old Dominion EMS Alliance has recognized the exceptional contributions of those in Emergency Medical Services through the Regional and Governor’s EMS Awards.
We have seen the fantastic contributions EMS professionals have provided throughout the region and the Commonwealth throughout the pandemic.
Help us recognize the best in the region by nominating someone you know for one of the 12 Regional EMS Awards.
Through March 15th, anyone can submit a nomination to recognize those in the region with one of twelve ODEMSA Regional EMS Awards. High School Seniors and GED recipients also have the opportunity to apply for an award along with a $1,000 scholarship.
Award recipients receive regional recognition and a nomination in the same category for a chance to be honored with a Governor’s EMS Award at the 2023 EMS Symposium in Norfolk. The High School Senior or GED Recipient regional award winner will also have the opportunity to receive the Governor’s EMS Award and an additional $5,000 scholarship.
