Firefighters Receive Paramedic Certification

Two City of Sevierville Fire Department (SFD) firefighters recently graduated from paramedic school at Walters State Community College. Firefighters Tony Hardin and Britt Turner (left and right, respectively, see photo), successfully completed approximately 1,800 classroom and clinical hours of advanced emergency training to attain their paramedic certifications.

“I am very proud of the commitment these two firefighters have made, not only to our department, but more importantly to our community,” said SFD Chief Matt Henderson. “They have gone above the requirements of their positions and are now trained to the highest level of pre-hospital care.”

The SFD now has a total six paramedic’s on staff allowing them to provide a high level of 24-hour emergency pre-hospital care on every response in the community.
