Spencer, IA (northwestiowanow.com) — National Emergency Medical Services Week is a chance to recognize those first responders who do incredible work behind the scenes, but always on the front line. Director of Ambulance Services at Spencer Hospital Chris Meyer says they have a great team in Clay County.

Meyer hopes we’ll take the time to thank an EMS professional, and he announced the Kids Poster Contest is back at Spencer Hospital.

Meyer says they will turn on the sirens and lights for the kids when they get their ride. For more information on EMS Week, or other services offered by Spencer Hospital visit their website.
