Michael Wilson
Clinical Services Specialist
EMSA
EMSA Advantage Instructor Michael Wilson was nominated as a Star of Life by Western Division Clinical Services Manager David Gooshaw. Michael has worked at EMSA in the Western Division since 2016.
“Michael’s focus is taking individuals who have no EMS experience and mentoring them through an EMT certification course. Mike takes his time and gives 100% to each one of the students. He makes himself available to them 24/7 during and after the course is completed. Michael also serves the community by working several street shifts on an ambulance on his weekends off,” Gooshaw said in his nomination.
Michael’s Supervisor, Tina Mathes, EMSA Director of Clinical Services, noted that even after students have left Michael’s classroom he continues to stay connected to them as a coach and a mentor. Day and night, he ensures they know he is their advocate at EMSA as long as they’re a member of the team.
Michael helped launch EMSA’s in-house EMT School, EMSA Advantage – and has helped set the bar high for his students. This successful program has helped our operations in Oklahoma City make positive strides many thought would be impossible in the last year and a half.
In his free time, Michael enjoys spending time with his beloved family.
