INTO THE UNKNOWN, THE PARAMEDICS’ JOURNEY DOCUMENTARY

Whatever Paramedics encounter on their calls, invariably those memories are taken home with them. As the saying goes “You can’t un-see what you’ve seen” How do you compartmentalize those thoughts? Where do you store those memories? This is what Paramedics face 24/7 – 365, and it takes a toll on them. They face personal injury, hazardous work environments, mental health issues, assaultive behavior, communicable diseases, and now a worldwide pandemic.

We will ride along with a select few with diverse backgrounds and learn the answers to those questions. How does the pathos and poignancy they observe daily affect them? Can the chaos they experience elbow its way into the intimacy of their home life? We will experience where they are, and what they do today… and we will imagine where they will be in the future. But most importantly, we will discover what motivates these heroic men and women to risk it all and step out into the unknown.

For twenty years, Kevin Tighe and I have discussed producing a documentary on Paramedics. We felt we did not want it to be just about its history. We also wanted to examine where this life-saving system is today, and where we think it will be in the future. We feel we have put together a powerful team to help realize that dream.

In order to tell an epic story that would encompass the Paramedic’s past to future, we needed to surround ourselves with men and women who are, not only highly respected in this field, but have had a hand in shaping the EMS system we have and benefit from today.

The three qualities Paramedics all seem to have are, courage, compassion and caring. The men and women who sit on our board have all displayed these qualities by dedicating their lives to the health and wellbeing of others. As a result, they have had a direct hand in shaping a noble profession.

We are eager to share with the public the story of the Paramedic.
