About this listen

Episode 317 of the Medic2Medic Podcast, Steve sits down with longtime EMS leader, educator, and U.S. Army veteran T. J. Bishop for a grounded conversation on rural EMS, leadership, education, and service. T.J. serves as the Assistant Chief of Operations and Training for San Juan Island EMS, overseeing response and education. With more than 30 years spanning civilian EMS, military medicine, and healthcare education, TJ shares hard-earned lessons on training an entire system, leading in resource-limited environments, and building programs that last.

A Powerful Family Story
Toward the end of the episode, TJ shares a deeply personal story about his family, specifically his son Andrew, who has special needs, and his incredible Make-A-Wish journey to become a U.S. Coast Guard Rescue Swimmer. It’s a moment that captures the heart of this episode: service, resilience, and what truly matters.
