On January 18, Paramedic Christopher Parks was at a local Hospital offloading a patient. While obtaining patient information he was approached by the mother of the patient in the next room. She told Chris her baby was not breathing. Chris quickly moved to the patient and found a pulseless, apneic, cyanotic baby.  He immediately picked up the baby and started chest compressions while alerting hospital staff of the emergency.  He delivered the patient to a resuscitation room where hospital staff assisted with CPR. The child regained pulses, was discharged a few days later and should make a full recovery.
Chris Parks is awarded the Hall Ambulance Star of Life for reacting to the situation in a quick, decisive, and appropriate manner which led to a life being saved.
