After being shorthanded since August, the Owen County EMS now has an additional full-time employee.
Owen County EMS Director Kevin Luther approached the fiscal court during its Nov. 10 meeting to request Larry Karsner be hired as a full-time EMT.
Luther said one full-time EMT had been on medical leave since August and not all part-time employees were able to work on a regular basis.
“Most EMS people have two or three jobs,” Luther said. “It’s tough times for everybody right now and we’ve been extremely busy.”
