The Pharr City Commission has officially proclaimed the week of May 18–24, 2025, as “Emergency Medical Services Week,” recognizing the critical role EMS professionals play in protecting and serving the Pharr community. The proclamation was presented to Pharr EMS staff by Chief Danny Ramirez and members of the City Commission in honor of their commitment to public health and safety. 

Emergency medical services (EMS) are a vital part of the healthcare system, providing lifesaving care 24 hours a day, seven days a week. From paramedics and EMTs to dispatchers, nurses, and emergency physicians, EMS professionals fill a vital gap in out-of-hospital care — including preventative medicine, follow-up care, and access to telemedicine — that improves survival and recovery outcomes for those facing sudden illness or injury. 

Chief Ramirez thanked his staff during the presentation, stating, “During EMS Week, we extend our deepest gratitude and heartfelt appreciation for the incredible service that our pre-hospital professionals provide to our community every day — their tireless dedication, professionalism, and compassion do not go unnoticed. Pharr is safer, stronger, and more resilient for everything you do.” With thousands of hours of training and a deep commitment to service, EMS teams stand ready to respond at a moment’s notice. By declaring this week in their honor, the City of Pharr celebrates the courage, skill, and compassion of all those who serve in emergency medical services.
