Pittsburgh paramedic Jon Atkinson, not a job for everyone

  • Summary

  • We want to hear your thoughts.

    Jon Atkinson is a 23 year veteran working as a paramedic in Pittsburgh PA. He is currently the president of their union, rescue paramedic, volunteer fireman and a tactical medic with the police SWAT unit. We met while I was a police officer in Pittsburgh. He and I met answering 911 calls and a friendship grew from there. Becoming a paramedic is not the easiest of tasks. Paramedics see a lot of bad shit and suffer from the same issues with addiction and mental health. We share the memories of a call that changed our lives forever. Jon dives into all aspects of his career and his experiences. This was a great interview and I learned a lot. Thank you Jon for sitting down with us.

    We love you and there is always a seat for you at the Steel City Round Table!
