Unforgettable calls is a space for EMS professionals to share your first-person accounts of critical moments on the job. Whether it was a patient rescue, a high-stress intervention, a MCI response, or a quieter encounter that changed your perspective, these stories connect the field with human insight. Submit your story, in your own voice and help others learn from your experience.

You’ve definitely buckled yourself into the rig and thought to yourself, “I’ll never forget that call.” You know those moments:

• When everything that could go wrong did go wrong
• When you made a difference that reminded you why you joined EMS
• When your partner went above and beyond for a patient or colleague
• When a patient taught you something you still carry with you
• When you learned a hard lesson from a mistake or near miss
• When humor or humanity cut through the chaos

We learn so much from the actions of others, even simply knowing that others have been through similar experiences. Share your unforgettable moments with the rest of the EMS1 community. Review our submission guidelines and email editor@ems1.com.
