Reeves County Emergency Service Districts Nos. 1 & 2
The professional & volunteer firefighters and paramedics of RCESD Nos. 1 & 2 are a team that helps protect the communities of Reeves County by responding to fires, hazardous incidents and medical emergencies at a moment's notice. 24/7/365
Today, members of Reeves County ESD are participating in the Active Attack Incident Management (AAIM) course, a two-day leadership program focused on improving coordination, communication, and decision-making during active attacks and other complex critical incidents.
The course brings together leaders from multiple public safety disciplines to work through realistic scenarios, emphasizing unified command, interagency collaboration, and effective incident management. Training like this ensures that when complex emergencies occur, first responders are prepared to work together seamlessly with one common goal—protecting our community.
At Reeves County ESD, we believe that strong leadership and continuous training are essential to providing the highest level of service to the citizens we serve.
Prepared Leaders. Strong Partnerships. Safer Communities.
Thank you to our friends at Visit Pecos for highlighting the grand opening of Station 4 & Training Center.
It's Medic Monday and today we are recongizing Paramedic Maurice Abboud
Cowboy at heart. Country dancer. '80s rock fan. And according to him…"a self-proclaimed world-renowned chef."
Paramedic Abboud, a member of A-Shift has served Reeves County ESD No. 2 for three years and eight months.
From El Paso, Texas, Paramedic Abboud says if he could live in any movie, it would probably be Tombstone. Why? Because deep down he's always wanted to be a cowboy.
When the shift is over, you'll usually find Paramedic Abboud doing one of three things: spending time with his girlfriend, Aileen, hanging out with his labradoodle, Athena, or hitting the dance floor. From line dancing to swing dancing, he's always up for a night of country music. Although don't be surprised if the playlist suddenly switches to '80s hard rock.
Back at the station, Maurice enjoys cooking for the crew. His specialty is grilled chicken topped with a creamy mushroom, onion, and garlic sauce. He proudly calls it "world renowned."
If you asked Paramedic Abboud to plan the perfect getaway, he'd skip the beach and head straight for Banff National Park in Canada.
The best advice Maurice has ever received is one he carries with him every day:
"Every obstacle is for the better."
It's also reflected in the advice he gives anyone considering becoming a paramedic:
"Go for it, and don't give up. It's a rewarding career."
The three photos in this spotlight represent what means the most to him: his family, his girlfriend, and the crew he proudly serves alongside. Those relationships remind him why he loves what he does and why Reeves County ESD feels like more than just a workplace.
Thank you, Maurice, for your dedication to our organization and to the citizens of Reeves County.
