EMERGENCY CARE Ready to respond when minutes matter For decades, Cascade Medical’s Emergency Medical Services team (Emergency Department and Ambulance) has provided lifesaving care to our Upper Valley community. Cascade Medical Chief Operating Officer Pat Songer says: “It’s uncommon for both Ambulance and Emergency Departments to be owned by one entity, as it is at Cascade Medical. This structure promotes teamwork and allows us to save precious time providing essential care when our patients need it most.” Patients like Tim Jackson. Jackson, visiting Leavenworth from Texas with his wife, Jennifer Ronzello, fell unconscious at a local restaurant after suffering a life-threatening cardiac event. Upon calling 911, our Ambulance team was there in moments and transported Jackson to Cascade Medical’s Emergency Department within minutes. Shortly after, our expert team had Jackson stabilized and ready to receive emergency heart surgery. Jackson’s partner, Ronzello, saw the care Cascade Medical provides close-up: “You get the personal care from a smallish hospital, but everyone is so capable, and the hospital is so well equipped…I’m really glad this is where we ended up.” They literally saved my life. We are so grateful.” —Tim Jackson “ 6 2025 Report to Our Community
