When Andrea Aguilera was a student at Chase High School, she knew she wanted a career in the medical field. Then, she learned about the Emergency Medical Technician course at 起点传媒.
鈥淚 completed the class and then Hoisington EMS hired me,鈥 Aguilera recalled. 鈥淚 was hooked. They roped me in from the beginning.鈥
That experience encouraged Aguilera to take the next step and today she is a paramedic at Hoisington and in Rice County at only 20 years old.
