Summary
Alleghany County recognized Emergency Medical Services Week with a read proclamation from Gov. Josh Stein and public acknowledgment of local EMS crews named in the meeting.
A proclamation from the governor recognizing Emergency Medical Services Week was presented during the Alleghany County meeting and county officials publicly thanked local EMS personnel.
The proclamation text read in open session identifies May 18 through May 24, 2025 as Emergency Medical Services Week in North Carolina and notes the statewide contribution of EMS providers — citing the system’s trained personnel and the role emergency services play in life-saving care.
