Our friend, coworker, and EMT-Intermediate Jason Steranko suffered a heart attack last week and is scheduled to undergo open-heart surgery on Monday at Lehigh Valley Hospital–Cedar Crest.

Jason has dedicated his entire life to public safety, spending countless hours serving and protecting others. Whether responding to medical emergencies, helping those in crisis, or supporting his fellow first responders, Jason has always answered the call with compassion, professionalism, and an unwavering commitment to his community.

Now, Jason and his wife need our support.

We ask that you please keep Jason, his wife, and their family in your thoughts and prayers. We pray for the skilled hands guiding his surgeons, strength for Jason as he faces this challenge, peace and comfort for his wife throughout this journey, and a successful surgery followed by a full and speedy recovery.

At Northern Berks EMS, we often say we are more than an ambulance service—we are a family. Today, one member of that family needs all of us.

Jason, thank you for a lifetime of selfless service. Your Northern Berks EMS family is standing beside you every step of the way, and we look forward to welcoming you back when you're ready.

Please join us in lifting Jason and his family up with your prayers, love, and encouragement. ❤️🚑
