Employee of the Is' Quarter <br />Ehren Torres <br />Ehren Torres joined the City of La Porte team in August of 2014. He is a licensed <br />paramedic and holds advanced certifications in a variety of areas including: <br />cardiovascular and pediatric care, critical care transport, and tactical support. He <br />is a member of the La Porte EMS Bike Team and serves as a field training officer. <br />Ehren goes above and beyond in all of his normal job duties which is reflected in <br />his consistently high performance evaluation ratings. In addition to that, Ehren <br />serves on the La Porte PD Tactical Team as the Tactical paramedic. This <br />assignment requires a significant commitment in order to remain ready both <br />physically and mentally. Ehren trains daily and encourages teammates to <br />participate in exercise programs. He attends all tactical trainings (even on his days <br />off) to maintain his awareness of the potential scenarios that could play out in a <br />tactical situation. Ehren has devoted many hours to research and training of <br />tactical medical support and has used that knowledge to author medical protocols <br />to care for fellow team members. He recently trained all La Porte PD Officers in <br />"Stop the Bleed" a program designed to teach teammates how to properly use <br />tourniquets to save lives. <br />Ehren's consistent dedication to improving his skills and the skills of his <br />teammates is an invaluable asset to the La Porte community. Please join me in <br />thanking him and congratulating him as an Employee of the Quarter. <br />
