Acadian Ambulance honors its Hub City Paramedic and EMT of the Year
LAFAYETTE, La. (KLFY) — Acadian Ambulance recognizes two EMS personnel for their work ethic and dedication serving Acadiana this past year.
Hub City's finest, Paramedic Brandi Leonard and EMT Alison Cagle were selected as the company's EMT of the Year out of 300 medics in the region.
Brandi Leonard started her career as an EMT in 2007 then became a paramedic in 2008 and continued serving Acadian Ambulance for 16 years. Through the years Leonard has earned many titles, certification and awards such as Critical Care Transport Paramedic, Senior Field training Officer and so much more.
Cagle began her journey in EMS while still in high school, where she took EMR classes. She obtained her EMT certification in early 2021 and worked in Sacramento, California, for two years before moving across the country to join the Acadian family. Cagle is currently in paramedic school and works out of Lafayette. Her dedication to EMS, consistent hard work, and commitment to quality patient care led to her recognition as EMT of the Year.
Acadian Ambulance will honor Leonard and Cagle, along with all regional honorees, and its entire medical team at its celebration on May 9 in Lafayette.
