Lights and Sirens is nonfiction

The UCLA Paramedic education program is one of the first and largest paramedic schools in the world. It is also the hardest to pass with an 81% success rate. That’s pretty low considering how hard it is to even get in. Kevin Grange talks about how he made it in. As a paramedic, you are put into stressful and mentally challenging life or death situations. He says “In one room you see a dad holding his son for the first time. In the next you see a dad holding his son for the last time. As a paramedic, you are the angel who has the power to save a life.” These people are true heroes.
