Alisha Welicki
Paramedic and North Operations Manager
Superior Air-Ground Ambulance Service of Michigan
Alisha Welicki has dedicated nearly two decades to Superior Air-Ground Ambulance of Michigan, where she currently serves as a Paramedic and North Operations Manager. She began her EMS career in 2005 during Superior’s Michigan startup, completing the company’s second Emergency Medical Technician program. Over the years, she advanced through many roles, beginning as an EMT and later serving as a Station Manager while earning her Paramedic license in 2016.
Long before Superior launched a formal Field Training Officer program, Alisha recognized the importance of mentorship and spent nine years training and guiding new EMTs in the field. She remains committed to strengthening and expanding Superior’s FTO program to this day.
In 2020, Alisha stepped into the role of Operations Manager at a time of extraordinary challenge. While managing the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, she simultaneously led Superior through the acquisition of a major southeast Michigan ambulance service, prepared for a CAAS reaccreditation, and welcomed her first child. Despite these obstacles, her self-determination and perseverance were unwavering. With the addition of hundreds of employees, dozens of ambulances, and multiple new stations, her role evolved into North Operations Manager, where she continues to serve with tireless dedication and exceptional leadership.
Alisha is known for her ability to connect with employees on a personal level, ensuring every team member feels valued and supported. She is deeply committed to advancing safety initiatives for crews and patients alike, while upholding Superior’s mission, vision, and accreditation standards.
Outside of EMS, Alisha enjoys exploring the outdoors with her husband, Joseph, a firefighter/paramedic, and their children, Theodore and Charlotte. Together, they have visited 40 states, numerous National Parks, and fondly recall memorable adventures including family road trips, a journey to Alaska, and their honeymoon in Ireland.
Superior Air-Ground Ambulance is proud to recognize Alisha Welicki as a 2025 Star of Life for her longevity, leadership, and outstanding service to the EMS profession.
