Several BC Ambulance Service (BCAS) paramedics were honoured at the 8th Annual Richmond Chamber of Commerce 9-1-1 Awards. Held on April 28, the awards recognized members of Richmond ambulance service, Fire Rescue, RCMP, Coast Guard and those municipal and community persons, groups and organizations who provide the 9-1-1 services, for their bravery and significant contributions to the community of Richmond.
This year, the community honoured Paramedic Crew of the Year John Richmond and Brad Campbell for their efforts during a multi-vehicle incident in which they were the first emergency crew on scene. Also recognized were BCAS paramedics Dick McClellan and Clarke McGuire, who received Career Achievement Awards for their dedication and years of service.
