This week, during National EMS Week, we want to take a moment to recognize the incredible people who make up our North East Mobile Health Services family and close friends.

To our EMTs, AEMTs, Paramedics, dispatchers, supervisors, educators, mechanics, administrative staff, community paramedics, support personnel, and partners at Camden, Maine Fire & Rescue:

Thank you!

Thank you for the missed holidays, late meals, interrupted sleep, and long shifts.
Thank you for the calm voices in chaos, the compassion shown on someone’s worst day, and the resilience it takes to do this job over and over again.
Thank you for carrying the weight that most people never see.

EMS is more than lights and sirens. It is clinical excellence, teamwork, sacrifice, adaptability, and heart. It is standing beside our communities during emergencies, disasters, critical incidents, and everyday moments that still matter deeply to the people calling 911 or transferring to other hospitals, home, or hospice care.

This year’s EMS Week theme, “Improving Outcomes, Together,” perfectly reflects what EMS truly is. None of us do this work alone. Every positive patient outcome is built on teamwork between field crews, dispatchers, hospitals, fire departments, law enforcement, public health partners, and the communities we serve.

Across Maine, EMS professionals continue to face increasing demands, workforce shortages, evolving healthcare challenges, and the emotional toll that comes with serving on the front lines of medicine. Yet every single day, our crews continue to show up ready to serve with professionalism, skill, and compassion.

At North East Mobile Health Services, we are proud to serve communities across Maine alongside some of the most dedicated professionals in healthcare. Whether you are responding to a critical call at 3AM, transferring a patient safely between facilities, covering a standby event, mentoring new clinicians, or supporting operations behind the scenes, your work matters, and it does not go unnoticed.

We also want to acknowledge the families behind our EMS professionals. The spouses, children, parents, partners, and loved ones who sacrifice time, flexibility, and peace of mind so their people can answer the call. Your support is part of this mission too.

EMS Week is about recognition, but appreciation for what you do extends far beyond a single week in May.

From all of us at North East Mobile Health Services:
Thank you for your dedication.
Thank you for your professionalism.
Thank you for continuing to answer the call.

Stay safe, look out for one another, and know that your work makes a difference every single day. 🚑🚒

Today we want to take a moment to recognize and express our immense gratitude for the EMTs, paramedics, firefighters, dispatchers, law enforcement officers, hospital staff, and the multitude of mutual aid agencies who answered the call during today’s devastating incident in Searsmont… many of which are still on scene.

Following the explosion and massive fire at Robbins Lumber, emergency officials declared the incident a mass casualty event as crews from across the region responded to assist. Multiple patients, including firefighters and first responders, were transported for treatment, and tragically it has been confirmed that a firefighter lost their life in the line of duty.

There aren’t words for the depth of sincerest condolences that go out to the entire Searsmont community, the families affected, and every department involved during this incredibly difficult time. Maine’s emergency services community in this area is small, and when tragedy strikes one town, it is felt across all of them.

We are especially grateful for the collaborative efforts that took place behind the scenes to ensure communities continued to have emergency coverage while resources were committed to the incident. Northeast Mobile Health Services with the help of Camden, Maine Fire & Rescue were able to quickly assemble:
• 4 paramedic ambulances
• 1 A-EMT ambulance
• 1 paramedic fly car
• 1 A-EMT fly car
• 1 float medic

These units stood by at the Camden Fire Department to provide 9-1-1 and interfacility transfer coverage for local hospitals, allowing mutual aid partners to remain focused on the active MCI response.

This is what the fire and EMS service is truly about, agencies coming together without hesitation when our communities need it most. Please continue to keep all victims, responders, and their families in your thoughts during the days ahead. Maine always shows up for one another, especially in moments like these, and right now, our communities, families, loved ones, friends, neighbors, and our brothers and sisters in public safety need it the most.

Today, we celebrate and honor the women who answer calls for help at every hour of the day and night, and still somehow make it home to answer the calls for “Mom” too.

We are I ncredibly grateful for the mothers, stepmothers, grandmothers, bonus moms, foster moms, mother figures, and mothers who have experienced loss who serve with and beside us every day. The women who comfort strangers on their worst days, advocate fiercely for their patients, support their crews like family, and still carry the immense responsibility of caring for those they love at home.

The sacrifices needed to be made in EMS and healthcare often go unseen. All of the missed holidays, interrupted dinners, sleepless nights, long shifts, and time away from family; yet these women continue to show up with compassion, strength, resilience, and heart. Your dedication to both the profession and your families is nothing short of extraordinary.

To all the mothers on our team and throughout our communities: thank you for the care you give, the sacrifices you make, and the example you set every single day. We are proud to work alongside you, proud to support you, and endlessly appreciative of all that you do.

& to the moms working on the trucks today, thank you for remaining calm during true emergencies, and then going home and pretending to be surprised when someone is crying because their sandwich was “cut wrong.” Your patience deserves clinical recognition.

Happy Mother’s Day from all of us at North East Mobile Health Services. 🌷

Amazing outcome. Thankful for our partners at Camden Fire already ready to go, prepared for our community. Strong work!

In emergency medicine, there are moments that define what this profession truly represents. Not only in clinical excellence and technical skill, but humanity, compassion, leadership, and unwavering service to others. For our organization, one of those defining examples is Paramedic Lina Powers of our Rockport division.

It is with immense pride and gratitude that we recognize Lina will be a recipient of the Maine EMS Merit Award, to be presented during EMS Week on Thursday, May 21, at the Hall of Flags in the State House in Augusta, Maine.

In EMS, clinical competency is expected. We train for it, even after our schooling is completed. What distinguishes exceptional providers is their ability to bring calm to chaos, reassurance to fear, and dignity to every patient encounter. According to the nomination sent in for Lina, she exemplifies those qualities every single day.

Whether comforting a frightened new mother after an MVA, guiding crews through high-acuity emergencies, caring for elderly patients with extraordinary patience and respect, or supporting vulnerable community members facing hardship, Lina consistently demonstrates what it means to serve with both professionalism and heart. Her ability to combine sharp clinical judgment with compassion leaves a lasting impact not only on patients and families, but on every colleague fortunate enough to work alongside her.

Lina’s presence within our organization extends far beyond the ambulance. She is a mentor to newer EMS providers, a trusted teammate, paramedic supervisor, and a natural leader who elevates the people around her. She leads quietly but effectively, setting an example through her work ethic, integrity, and commitment to her patients. Her standards are high because her dedication to this profession runs deep.

Beyond emergency response, Lina continuously strengthens the communities we serve. From organizing food pantries and community events to creating opportunities for connection and support for local families, she embodies the spirit of public service in every aspect of her life. Her investment in her community reflects the very best of EMS: service that continues long after the call is complete.

At North East Mobile Health Services and within the Camden, Maine Fire & Rescue partnership, Lina has become an invaluable bridge between organizations, helping foster teamwork, trust, and a culture centered around excellence and compassion. Her impact reaches patients, coworkers, students, families, and the broader community alike.

Recognition such as the Maine EMS Merit Award exists to honor individuals who make a profound difference through service, leadership, and dedication. We cannot imagine a more deserving recipient, and clearly the members of her team that sent in a nomination.

Lina, thank you for the countless lives you have touched, the comfort you have provided during people’s hardest moments, and the example you continue to set for the EMS profession across the State of Maine. We are extraordinarily proud to have you as part of our team, and honored to celebrate this well-earned recognition alongside you.

Congratulations, and thank you for representing the very best of Maine EMS. What a great way to start EMS week in a couple weeks!

The ceremony will be held Thursday, May 21 at 1:00pm for anyone interested in attending.

Good morning all,
Just a reminder to all who knew and cared for North East Mobile Health Services EMT Bill Schouten.

A funeral service celebrating Bill’s life will be held on Saturday, May 2, 2026, at 12:00 PM at Calvary Chapel Safe Harbor Church in Searsport, Maine.

Following the service, family and friends are invited to gather in the building adjacent to the church. Bill’s wife Amy shared that there is an easy walkway connecting the two buildings, as well as access through the parking lot beside the church.

Please continue to keep Amy, their family, and all who loved Bill in your thoughts during this difficult time.

It didn’t seem right to batch both of our dispatch centers together under one post. I wanted to make sure both understood how thankful we are for the work both do. Some of the same, but also very different. We want to also extend our sincere appreciation to the professionals of MedComm, whose role in the continuum of care is both complex and crucial.

Operating at the intersection of prehospital medicine, critical care transport, and interfacility coordination, MedComm serves as far more than a dispatch center. They are the central node in a highly dynamic system… managing resources across agencies, aligning ground and air assets, and ensuring that the right level of care reaches the right patient at precisely the right time.

Whether coordinating with flight programs, facilitating time-sensitive transfers, or supporting field crews with real-time logistics, your work demands a depth of operational awareness that is both broad and exacting. You are continuously balancing acuity, geography, weather, resource availability, and clinical urgency…. Most often simultaneously, and always under pressure.

What sets your team apart is not just the scope of responsibility, but the precision with which it is executed. The seamless integration between MedComm, North East Mobile Health Services, and our regional partners (including critical care and flight teams) does not happen by chance. It’s the result of communication, understanding, and an unwavering commitment to patient-centered coordination.

Long before a helicopter lifts or a unit begins transport, your decisions are already shaping the trajectory of care. You are the unseen force ensuring continuity, mitigating delays, and bridging gaps in a system where minutes matter and margins are narrow. We recognize the weight of that responsibility, and we are deeply grateful for it.

From all of us at North East Mobile Health Services, thank you for your expertise, your vigilance, and your integral role in the care of the patients we collectively serve. Your work is not always visible, but its impact is profound and far-reaching.

Happy telecommunication week!
