Last week, Leeds Grenville Community Paramedic leadership had the opportunity to attend the 2026 Community Paramedicine Knowledge Exchange Expo ( ).
It was a privilege to collaborate with community paramedicine leaders, healthcare partners, and industry stakeholders from across Ontario as we continue to innovate, build healthcare capacity, and improve access to care for the residents we serve.
We were also honoured to hear from Ontario's Minster of Health, Sylvia Jones, who recognized the bravery, professionalism, and dedication of the paramedics involved in the recent Highway 15 incident. Her words of support and well wishes for their recovery were greatly appreciated.
Minister Jones also emphasised that Community Paramedicine is no longer a pilot project, but that it is an established and essential healthcare program that is making a meaningful difference in the lives of Ontarians every day.
Thank you, Minister Jones, for helping kick off the 2026 Community Paramedicine Knowledge Exchange Expo and for your continued support of Community Paramedicine across Ontario.
