In this episode, we catch up with Erin Eames, a State Emergency Services Deputy Rescue Officer and student of paramedical science.

We discuss the many varied aspects of her role as a Deputy Rescue Officer, and hear first hand, her frontline experience battling the notorious bushfires that ravaged across Australia last summer.

Erin explains what the SES is and what is like being on team, including the weekly training and comradery that builds from being engaged in the rescue effort.

Erin also discusses her experiences at clinical workshops as part of her Diploma of Paramedical Science at the Australian Paramedical College, and how her volunteer work has given her a passion and preparation for a career in emergency health.
