Community Paramedics Provide Health Services and Education

community · Denman and Hornby Islands

Community paramedics Jason Stevens and Sean Nordell provide 20 hours per week of health promotion, emergency response, and preventative care on Denman and Hornby Islands. They assist with emergency planning, advanced care directives, CPR training, and programs to reduce emergency calls. They also support the Green Envelope Program to communicate patients' treatment wishes during emergencies.

This is the archive, not the newspaper. Between 2018 and 2026 this site compiled these items automatically from public community sources — chiefly The Islands Grapevine, regional news feeds and community groups. They were not written by a reporter and were not held to the standards this publication now applies. The archive is kept because it is a useful dated record of what happened on Denman, and it is labelled because pretending otherwise would be the first thing we would tell you not to trust. Current reporting is at The Denman Firestarter.
