Every week is EMS Week at Blink — because we care, too
EMS Week may be over, but at Blink, our appreciation for emergency medical professionals doesn’t end with the calendar. For us, recognizing the lifesaving work of EMTs, paramedics, and staff isn’t a once-a-year gesture — it’s a year-round commitment grounded in care.
This year’s EMS Week theme, “We care for everyone,” says it best. EMS teams are there for all of us — and it’s our job to be there for them.
Behind every siren is a team that deserves support
The reality of working in emergency medical services is demanding on every level. Long hours, unpredictable situations, and high-stakes decisions are just part of the job. And for EMS professionals, that job never really stops — holidays, weekends, middle-of-the-night calls.
It’s a role that requires not just skill and courage, but constant coordination, communication, and clarity. And that’s where Blink comes in.
Caring for others starts with caring for your team. That’s why Blink is designed to meet the needs of EMS professionals — not just as employees, but as people.
At Blink, we’re proud to serve thousands of paramedics, EMTs, and staff across some of the country’s largest EMS organizations.
Assisting EMS behind the scenes
We’re proud to work with EMS organizations across the country — from city ambulance services to rural responder units — to help their teams stay connected, informed, and empowered, no matter where the job takes them.
Whether they’re responding to an emergency or prepping for the next shift, EMS workers need tools that work as hard as they do.
With Blink, EMS organizations can:
- Send real-time updates about protocols, routes, or equipment changes
- Deliver training resources straight to mobile devices
- Coordinate shifts and crews with better visibility and fewer delays
- Recognize outstanding work with peer-to-peer shoutouts and leadership messages
- Give employees a voice with surveys, feedback tools, and two-way communication
- Foster connection between teams that rarely see each other face-to-face

Built for the field — not just the office
EMS professionals don’t spend their days behind a desk. So why rely on systems that expect them to?
Blink is a mobile-first employee experience platform, built for people whose work happens on the move. We make it easier for EMS leaders to reach every team member — from the newest trainee to the most experienced paramedic — and equip them with the information they need, when they need it.

Our commitment: Always on
EMS professionals care for everyone with every call they answer. At Blink, we believe the same care should be extended to them — through tools that reduce friction, strengthen connection, and show that their work and well-being truly matter.
We believe EMS teams deserve more than recognition during one week of the year. They deserve better tools, better communication, and better connection — every week.
To all the EMS professionals working tirelessly behind the scenes and on the frontlines: thank you. We see you, we support you, and we’re committed to building technology that helps you do what you do best — saving lives.
Blink. And keep your EMS teams stay connected — every hour, every shift, every week.
