Edmund Moreshead

Edmund “Ed” Moreshead has dedicated more than four decades to advancing emergency medical services in Maine. Currently serving as an Advanced Practice Paramedic in Jackman, Ed provides essential care in one of the state’s most rural regions—an area as large as Rhode Island. His role goes far beyond traditional 911 response, as he also delivers expanded Community Paramedicine and Hospice services to patients in communities without home health or hospice programs. For the past five years, he has been a cornerstone of care in this underserved region.

Throughout his 42 years of EMS service, Ed has worn many hats: ground Paramedic, Flight Paramedic for LifeFlight of Maine, administrator for a large EMS program, and Program Director and Educator at one of Maine’s eleven EMS training centers. His deep expertise and leadership have shaped countless providers and strengthened the state’s emergency response system.

Ed is a graduate of Kennebec Valley Community College and the University of Maine. He holds certifications in Wilderness Medicine, Community Paramedicine, and EMS Instruction, further underscoring his lifelong commitment to learning and teaching.

Beyond EMS, Ed is devoted to his family and community. At home, he and his wife Suzanne raise Hereford beef cattle. He is also an avid cyclist who enjoys challenging rides across Maine’s scenic landscapes.

North East Mobile Health Services is proud to recognize Edmund Moreshead as a Star of Life for his lifelong service, innovation, and unwavering dedication to patient care.
