Letter: Resident thanks medical staff for professionalism

To the 911 operator, EMT’s and emergency room evening crews working on Jan. 7, THANK YOU for all your professionalism, competency, caring, etc., in responding to my husband’s health issues.

We are so lucky to be living in Pahrump and have this level of experienced personnel to rely on.

THANK YOU seems so inadequate.
