Welcome to the webspace of the New Brunswick Paramedic
Honour Guard
About Us
The Honour Guard (the Guard) was created in April 2004 under the Paramedic Association of New Brunswick (PANB) Chapter 3. It evolved into what it is today because of the determination of a small group of Paramedics with admiration and dedication for promoting the profession of Paramedicine. Its members have put in many hours by participating in various public functions, attending countless meetings and drill training.
The Guard is very unique from other EMS Guards in that we are broken into two (2) branches:
First, an elected Executive governs the Guard. The Executive consists of a Director, Assist Director, Communications Officer, and Treasurer.
Second, during training exercises and functions the Guard follows a para-military structure in which a ranking system is in place. We have a Captain who leads in any associated drill procedure and in the event of his or her absence, a Chief Warrant will step into his or her place. The goal of the Captain is to help assist the members with their drill technique and to better those as a unified group while participating at a function.
To identify a Captain and Chief Warrant during a function, they will wear different lanyard then the rest of the group, which may include the Executive.
The Guard is always working toward excellence and for that things may change as the membership sees fit.
Welcome to the Guard!
