Some stories come full circle. Twenty-seven years ago, paramedic Jim Deering helped deliver baby Kienan safely into the world. Last week, they met again. This time, Kienan was wearing the St John WA uniform as an Ambulance Transport Officer, following in Jim's footsteps and caring for patients across Perth. Jim retired last year after a career dedicated to helping others. By chance, Kienan is now working on Jim's former vehicle and shift – with many of Jim's former patients still sharing stories about the care he gave them. For Jim, it was a chance to see the next generation continue a tradition of service. For Kienan, it was an opportunity to thank the person who helped give him his start in life.

Usually you’ll find them helping out at events... this weekend, they were the event. 😎💚 Our EHS volunteers took on the MSWA Step Up, conquering hundreds of stairs, testing their legs, and questioning their life choices somewhere around the halfway mark. 🥵😂 A huge effort by the team for a fantastic cause, with plenty of laughs, encouragement and sore calves along the way. #mswa #stepupmswa #mswastepup
Brian Gallop card unlocked ⚡🚑 28 years XP, unlimited helping-hand stats and powered almost entirely by beef mince 🥩 Inspired by the songlark 🦜 and always ready to jump in where he’s needed, Brian has spent nearly three decades supporting people and communities across WA.

Wondering why Perth is glowing teal tonight? 💚 On the eve of Thank a First Responder Day, landmarks across the city are illuminated to recognise the people who are there when help is needed most. Every day, first responders across WA answer the call to support, care for and protect our communities. To all first responders, thank you for everything you do.
