    NASHVILLE, TENN – EMS and emergency first responders were recently honored at the
    Children’s Emergency Care Alliance of Tennessee (CECA TN) annual Star of Life Awards
    ceremony.

    Tennessee EMS and First Responders Honored at the Annual Star of Life Awards Ceremony

    The Star of Life Awards recognize EMS personnel across Tennessee for their exemplary lifesaving care for adult and pediatric patients. This unique ceremony reunites EMS teams with the patients they saved, providing an opportunity for the patients to publicly thank the teams responsible for their survival. EMS professionals often respond to emergencies on the worst day of someone’s life and rarely see the patient’s outcome after transferring care.

    This event allows them to witness the direct impact of their lifesaving efforts.

    There were 11 awards presented: 8 Regional Awards, Project ADAM Award, Outstanding
    Achievement in Maternal and Neonatal Emergency Response Award, and an overall State
    Winner Award.

    Each EMS agency received a Stone Star award, and each team member involved in the rescue received a certificate and a Star of Life lapel pin for their dress uniform. Patients also received a certificate of new life to honor their bravery and resilience during their recovery journey.

    The 2024 ceremony was held on May 2 in Lebanon, Tennessee. The winners included:
