South Carolina EMS Memorial
The South Carolina EMS Memorial, a collaborative effort of South Carolina Emergency Medical Services organizations, was dedicated on May 17th, 2011. This memorial was established to honor the courageous men and women who served as EMS professionals in South Carolina. The memorial stands as a tribute to those who fell in the line of duty and those who passed away off the job. It serves as a lasting reminder of their unwavering commitment to saving lives and serving our communities. This dual-purpose memorial ensures that the legacy of compassion, bravery, and service of these EMS professionals will never be forgotten.
