Meet Texas Regional Communications Center Dispatcher II, Olivia Moore. Olivia’s journey into EMS began as an EMT basic, driven by her desire to assist those in need. Transitioning into the communications side allowed her to delve deeper into the intricacies of the field while still fulfilling her passion for helping others from behind the scenes. Olivia finds motivation in her ability to make a difference, even in the most challenging situations. She embodies the spirit of compassion and professionalism, striving to provide the best possible assistance to every caller in their time of need. Olivia recounts a moment where effective communication proved instrumental in a lifesaving outcome. Through her calm guidance, she empowered a caller to perform CPR, leading to the restoration of a pulse upon EMS arrival at the hospital. Olivia emphasizes the importance of maintaining a calm and understanding demeanor, recognizing that each caller’s situation is different and is most likely their worst day. By embodying these qualities, she ensures efficient and effective assistance in every emergency scenario. Olivia offers sage advice to those considering a career in EMS. She encourages individuals to assess their commitment to service, drive for excellence, and ability to maintain a balanced work-life dynamic. Thank you, Olivia, for your dedication and commitment, which make a profound impact on countless lives every day!
The theme for this year’s World Health Day is ‘My Health, My Right.’ Today is an opportunity to champion the right of everyone, everywhere to have access to medical services, education and information, as well as safe drinking water, clean air, good nutrition, quality housing, decent working and environmental conditions, and freedom from discrimination. We are committed to delivering rights-based services to all in the communities we serve, and we believe that no matter who you are, or where you are, you deserve timely, equitable and appropriate access to healthcare.
Two weeks ago, the Ways and Means Committee traveled to Denton, TX to hear directly from patients and medical providers about the challenges to accessible, quality emergency care in rural and underserved communities.

Katie Echavarria has always had a passion for making a positive impact on people's lives. From the beginning of her EMS career, her passion has been driven by compassion for others. An extraordinary encounter with an infant, whose life she saved, forever shaped her enthusiasm for EMS. This compassion led her to a position where she guides and teaches others. As a pilot instructor for Guardian Flight, Katie believes her role is a great calling and privilege to be able to teach future aviators to fly. A pivotal moment in Katie’s aviation career occurred just one week into teaching at Guardian Flight when a student told her she had a gift for teaching and helped him overcome an obstacle. Through her guidance, she has made a lasting impact on the amazing pilots who work alongside her. Katie’s advice to aspiring female aviators who are considering a career in the industry is to have faith and never stop believing. She stands firm on her faith in God and making the heavens her office view is one of the best decisions she has ever made. She is inspired to see more women in the industry and encourages more women to join. Katie exemplifies the leadership and compassion that define our team. We are proud to have her as a valuable member of our GMR family. Thank you, Katie, for your hard work and commitment to the communities we serve. #WOAW #OneTeam
