At our 2025 IRCP event, Kevin Deramus, Agency Chief at Washington County EMS in Rural Texas, shared insights on creating “unreasonable expectations” within Community Paramedic models.

Kevin demonstrated that, now more than ever, program leadership must embrace what may be considered “unreasonable” approaches to enable these programs to thrive and achieve more success in today’s climate.
