CELEBRATING PARAMEDIC SERVICES Clockwise from top: Katie MacKenzie, a newly hired Halton paramedic, gets a big hug from her dad Kirk who survived a cardiac arrest in 2016, thanks in part to the teamwork of responding Halton paramedics. That inspired Katie to become a paramedic. The Burlington resident was able to meet for the first time the four paramedics -- including (from left) Rebecca Barry, Dawn Marie Lebel, Adam Sellors and James Keating, who saved his life. They met during Halton Paramedics Day at the Bronte Road headquarters. The second annual event helps mark Paramedic Services Week (May 27-June 2) and offered residents a chance to walk through an ambulance, try on tactical gear and learn about the services performed by paramedics. Seven-year-old Mariam Barr (left) gives it her all as she tries to pull this 200-pound rescue mannequin along with her brother Kareem Ibrahim, 4, and sister Karmah Ibrahim, 8. Halton paramedic Drew Barisdale show his seven-year-old daughter Madelyn how to incubate a patient after establishing an airway.
