Her com- ment begins to make sense when you realize that the 26-year-old’s first love is emergency medicine. Patla has served as a paramedic for the past 2 1/2 years with Geisinger’s Medic 303 unit in the Pittston Area, and also with Medic 2 in Plains. In addition, she is an emergency medi- cal technician for both Swoyersville and Wyoming Boroughs. “I love what I do and wouldn't change it for the world,” she says. “Many of the people I've met at vari- ous beauty pageants aspire to be models or actresses. When my com- petitions are complete, I want to con- tinue being a paramedic.” She would, of course, be willing to leave emergency medicine for the upcoming year if she is fortunate enough to win the Miss USA title. Helping people faced with emergency situations, though, is something she plans to do for many, many years. Patla’s love of emergency care started when, as a teenager, she took a course in first aid to prepare her to be a safe baby sitter. “That class sparked an interest for me, and I knew this was something I wanted to pursue,” she explains. The Lake-Lehman High School graduate went on to complete the paramedic program at Luzerne County Community College. “Work- ing as a paramedic is definitely interesting and rewarding,” she said. ANGELA PATLA “It’s unpredictable, never boring, and the right choice for me.” “Angela is a good paramedic,” says Jack Lasky, coordinator for Medic 303. “She is conscientious and professional. We'll miss her if she wins the Miss USA title, but we're all rooting for her.” Patla's mother, Leam; father, Ed; sister, Pauline; and several friends will be traveling to Missouri to wish her the best. Her brother, Ed, will be glued to the television pulling for his sister to do well. It may be intimidating to many people to appear on national television and compete in a beauty pageant with 50 other well qualified But Angela Patla knows what it's like to respond to emergency medical situations and help people who are critically ill or contestants. injured. That truly is a talent worthy of a crown. All Fixtures For Sale! Quitting Business Sale Terms: Cash Checks Visa Master Card Prices Good thru: 2/9/00 . Discounts .
