Editor’s Note: EMS1 is proud to be the Premier Media Sponsor of the Pinnacle Webinar Series. On Tuesday, August 18, at 2 p.m. ET, Fitch & Associates will present the webinar, “Pinnacle Rewind 2026: From Ideas to Action.” Register today.
Pinnacle brings EMS leaders together to exchange ideas, challenge assumptions and share strategies for improving their organizations. But with a packed conference agenda, it can be difficult to capture every useful idea — much less determine what to do with it when you return home.
Pinnacle Rewind 2026: From Ideas to Action gives EMS leaders another opportunity to examine some of the concepts and solutions shared at this year’s conference.
Whether you attended Pinnacle 2026 or followed the conversation from afar, join Fitch & Associates as they revisit key takeaways and continue the discussion about putting those ideas into practice.

What do paramedics want?
The What Paramedics Want in 2026 report adds new urgency to a decade of EMS workforce data. This year’s survey shows how staffing, leadership and burnout are now intersecting with another pressure point: whether providers can predict their workload, finish shifts on time and recover between calls.
Across 10 years of provider feedback, the message has grown clearer. EMS leaders need to move beyond recruitment alone and build systems where people can stay, grow and recommend the profession. This digital edition, produced in partnership with Fitch & Associates, connects the data to practical action: staff the system, support the workforce, stabilize the workload and protect recovery time.
EMS1’s ongoing What Paramedics Want coverage examines what today’s EMS professionals are telling us about their careers, workplaces and the future of the profession. Explore the latest findings and analysis for insights EMS leaders can put to work in their organizations.
