Two Paramedic students experienced remarkable moments during just the second day of their final preceptorships, each responding to calls that resulted in the safe arrival of a newborn.  Student Alyssa Haggerty and her preceptor were dispatched to a planned home birth in Ottawa, where midwives requested paramedic support due to concerns for the baby.
