Rod Brouhard / About

Four decades inside the system.

Rod Brouhard has spent nearly four decades in emergency medical services—as a paramedic, operational leader, educator, and writer.

He has worked in EMS since 1990 and previously directed an EMS program in higher education. His career has taken him from the back of an ambulance to responsibility for complex emergency medical operations across the San Francisco Bay Area.

His EMS journalism appeared on About.com under The New York Times and later IAC. He is the author of two traditionally published nonfiction books. Terminal Autonomy is his debut novel.
