Posted @withregram • @fdny Today, the FDNY held the 27th Annual Second Chance Ceremony. 10 cardiac arrest survivors were able to reunite with the first responders who helped to save their lives. The FDNY would like to thank the Pintchik Family and the @fdnyfoundation for their generous support in making this annual event possible. The Pintchik family has honored EMS members annually for their hard work, dedication and ability to profoundly touch the lives of so many fellow New Yorkers and visitors.
In celebration of #EMSWeek, the spotlight is on five of our #EMS Instructors who are inspiring first responders each day through their guidance, attentiveness and knowledge in the classroom. Throughout their career with #FDNYEMS, these instructors, and many others, have set the standard for what it means to teach “Where Emergency Care Begins.”
Today, meet #Paramedic Stanley Ko, who is the Senior Certified Instructor Coordinator (CIC) at our EMS Bureau of Training at #FortTotten. Ko, a #Queens native, works with our Advanced Life Support (ALS) refresher courses.
"My decision to work for the FDNY aligns with my personal values of service, compassion and dedication to the well-being of others,” said Ko, a nearly 10-year #FDNY veteran, who is Chinese. “While it may not be a traditional or expected career path, it showcases my commitment to making a positive difference in the lives of individuals and communities in need, regardless of cultural boundaries.”

Throughout their career with FDNY EMS, these instructors, and many others, have set the standard for what it means to teach “Where Emergency Care Begins.”
Today, meet #EMT Kydeshia Langdon, who works as an instructor at our Emergency Medical Dispatch (EMD) at Public Safety Answering Center II (PSAC II) in #TheBronx.
"It has always been my passion to help others. To know that even one patient has been given the chance to breathe again based off the training we provide to our dispatchers and call takers is why I find fulfillment in my career here," said Langdon, a seven-year #FDNY veteran who hails from #EastFlatbush. "It feels amazing to teach my fellow members. Whether you are looking to expand your skill set as an EMT by working in dispatch or starting your career with the FDNY learning radio etiquette and operations in the EMS Academy, my focus is to always make sure all of our members are equipped and prepared to be their absolute best."
