Fulda - the farewell of two long -time employees of the German Red Cross (DRK) Fulda not only marked the end of a career, but also a significant moment of reflection on the change in the emergency services and the future of the medical sector in the region. Peter Breidenbach and Matthias Kempf, both of whom have been in the emergency services for over 40 years, bring an abundance of experiences that could be invaluable for future generations.

valuable contributions to rescue medicine

Peter Breidenbach, who started his career as a civil service provider, has specialized as an emergency paramedic in the past four decades. From 1987 he worked on the ADAC rescue helicopter Christoph 28, where he took on a high level of responsibility and finally played the role of the "leading HEMS TC". Breidenbach's most recent step to take care of the youngsters as a practical instructor shows the commitment that he has not only for the direct patient safety, but also for the training of future rescue workers.

an important legacy in the DRK

Matthias Kempf, also a community service provider at the beginning of his career, worked up from the painter and painter to the paramedic. He also spent a large part of his service at Christoph 28 and always sought to obtain new qualifications. Through various stations within the DRK, including the patient driving service and the “Am Red Rain” senior center, he has demonstrated its versatility and adaptability.

shared experiences and emotional farewells

The CEO of the DRK Fulda, Christoph Schwab, praised the two men for their extraordinary achievements and the influence that they had on the DRK and numerous life rescues. The former DRK district association Dr. Michael Wuttke emphasized how important Breidenbach and Kempf was for the development of the emergency services in the region and emphasized that they experienced mourning and joy in many missions.

an appeal to the next generation

In a moving closing word, Peter Breidenbach called on the young colleagues to get involved in the DRK with full strength. His encouragement shows both gratitude for all the experiences that he has gained over the years and the belief in the future generation of emergency services: "It is worth it!" This message is of great importance, since the emergency services always change and is faced with new challenges.

Farewell and outlook

The retirement of Breidenbach and Kempf is the end of an era, but is also a call for further development. Your expertise will not only be missing, but also serve as an inspiration for the new generation of emergency helpers. At a time when medicine and technology continue to progress, the knowledge of the Veterans of the DRK Fulda will be decisive in order to maintain the high quality of rescue care in the region.
