Robin Smith

Robin “Smitty” Smith has been an invaluable member of the First Call Ambulance team since 2015. Starting as a Paramedic in the field, Smitty’s commitment and passion for EMS quickly became evident, leading him to transition into a pivotal role in training and education. Today, he oversees the training of all employees, with a special focus on leading our EMT Academy.

Under Smitty’s leadership, the EMT Academy has flourished. His dedication to perfecting the art of teaching has resulted in outcomes that far exceed national standards. His last two academy classes achieved an impressive 100% pass rate on the National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians (NREMT) exam, a remarkable feat that speaks to his skill as an educator. These results, well above the national average, reflect not just Smitty’s ability to prepare his students for exams but also his dedication to shaping highly competent providers who are ready to serve their communities.

Smitty’s impact extends beyond the classroom. His unwavering commitment to his students’ success has led to the creation of a new generation of EMTs who are prepared, confident, and skilled in providing lifesaving care. His passion for education and his genuine care for his students make him a standout leader in our organization.
When he’s not guiding the next wave of EMS professionals, Smitty enjoys relaxing on the golf course and cherishing time with his wife. First Call Ambulance is honored to recognize Robin “Smitty” Smith as our 2024 Star of Life, celebrating his exceptional contributions and dedication to the EMS profession.
