If you’ve been following us over the last few weeks, you might remember this familiar face. We are happy to introduce Paramedic Sydney Rector as this week’s #MedicMonday! Sydney was recently featured after graduating from her bridge program from CRT to Paramedic. If you didn’t see that post, you may have seen her on a call, or pulled over on the side of the road to pet a goat/dog/cat. You can always count on her to ask “Did you see that dog?!” at multiple points throughout the shift. Our resident pet lover is currently assigned to Paramedic 2 (Central) on B Shift.
Name: Sydney Rector
How long have you been with Cecil County/Local 4645?: 2 years
How did you start in EMS?: I started volunteering with the fire department when I was 16 years old and fell in love with the job while going through EMT class. After a few years as an EMT I went on to get my Paramedic.
What is the most rewarding part of your job?: The most rewarding part of my job is getting to meet and serve everyone in the community, their families, and pets.
Tell us about your life outside of work: When I’m not working, I spend my time at the state park kayaking and going hiking with my 3 dogs. I enjoy traveling and visiting new places. I also work part-time at Cockeysville Volunteer Fire Department.
What is an interesting fact about you that people might not know?: I had 2 hedgehogs as pets when I was a kid.
