Paramedic Ollenberger has been a shining example of excellence since arriving at MedFleet Ambulance. Although a relatively new Paramedic, Ollenberger has developed a wealth of knowledge and shows a level of expertise in the profession of critical care paramedicine. Paramedic Ollenberger consistently delivers top-notch care to those in need and her advanced skills and quick thinking have undoubtedly made a difference in the patients she has transported. Paramedic Ollenberger's dedication to ongoing professional development sets her apart as a leader in her field. Whether she is participating in advanced medical training or sharing her knowledge with colleagues, her passion for excellence is evident in everything she does.

These are just a few examples of the hard work, dedication, eagerness to help, and servant leadership that Paramedic Ollenberger exhibits every day when she goes to work. She is a shining example of what it means to be a First Responder. Her work ethic should be a benchmark for which other first responders should strive to attain.
