During
#NationalEMSWeek, we honor the courage, skill, and sacrifice of Emergency Medical Services professionals who serve on the front lines of crisis every day.
At the National September 11 Memorial & Museum, we also remember the seven EMS members who lost their lives responding to the 9/11 attacks. They were among the first to answer the call, racing towards danger without hesitation to save others.
Their bravery reflects the highest ideals of the EMS profession—service, compassion, and resilience in the face of unimaginable tragedy. We honor not only their memory, but the continuing legacy of all EMS personnel who carry forward their commitment every day.
