Today, Sussex County Emergency Medical Services, Sussex County Volunteer Ambulance Association, in conjunction with the Seaford Vol. Fire Department, held an Phoenix Award program.  The "Phoenix" is a mythological bird that died and rose renewed from its ashes.  The Sussex County EMS and Sussex County Ambulance Association have adopted the PHOENIX AWARD to reconize those EMS Paramedics, EMTs, Firefighters, and Law Enforcement Officers who through thier skills and knowledge, have successfully brought back to life, individuals who had died.  Today, Mid Sussex would like to reconize EMT Karen Tingle, and EMT Jacqueline Marshall for receiving this award after responding to a Cardiac Arrest just up the street from the Station and successfully resusciating the patient and delivering them to the hospital.  We would also like to reconize EMT Cody Grosch, who also received an award for successfully resusciating a Cardiac Arrest patient while working part time with the Rehoboth Beach Fire Co.  Congratulations to all the winners.
