Paramedic Zachary (Zach) Zeiler was nominated for Stars of Life by EMT Ashlynn Gregory. Zach has worked at EMSA in the Eastern Division for three years.

“Even on high stress calls, Zach stays focused on the best way to provide patient care and advocacy. He is always diligent in practicing teamwork as a partner and with other agencies. I have never met a Paramedic more adamant about holding himself accountable,” Gregory wrote in her nomination.

EMSA Field Operations Supervisor David Yales said, “Zach is always eager to help out. He is well-liked and respected by the team. He remains positive. He’s always happy to assist and teach newer team members. He’s coachable and honest.”

Zach never flinches when asked to help and often helps without being asked. He is a team-first medic every EMS service would be lucky to have.

Zach spends his time away from EMSA with his fiance, Madelyn.
