Posted @withregram • @fdny Mark Bonilla started as an EMT more than 27 years ago, working his way up the ranks to become EMS Division Chief of Special Operations. Division Chief Bonilla oversees the specially trained Haz-Tac Units and Rescue Medics who respond to unique and challenging situations like building collapses, trench rescues, and water rescues.

“Mentoring is one of our biggest things. I think our members appreciate the people who came through the ranks. When your members are more comfortable with you, that increases the learning experience here,” said Division Chief Bonilla.

As a Puerto Rican born in Harlem and raised in Washington Heights, Division Chief Bonilla says he’s glad he brings a level of comfort and familiarity to his community. “I still go up to Washington Heights and have breakfast at the same diner I grew up in; the owner is still there. I think seeing me gives them more comfort. They’re more comfortable interacting with me. Going back where you grew up and seeing the people and them seeing what you’ve become, it’s easier for them to communicate with you.” #HispanicHeritageMonth
