Part 4 – Education in America, with guest Merry Mattix. “Love and kindness are never wasted, they always make a difference.” ~ Helen James

I feel like it is safe to say, many of us have someone we can point to in our lives that has had a huge impact on the person we develop into. In fact, most of us may have several people. It is not lost on me the importance of doing the right thing, even when it is the most difficult thing to do.

 

This week’s guest is a glowing example of how a balanced approach to issues can be the most productive way to solve a problem. Mrs. Merry Mattix is a RN/Paramedic and she happens to be the Southwest Tennessee Community College EMS (Emergency Medical Services) Program Director, the Allied Health Interim Dean and oh yeah…My boss.

 

When I was thinking about how I could wrap up my series on education the thought occurred to me, why not bring in one of the pioneers of education in the world of EMS. Mrs. Mattix shares with my listeners how she found herself going from Paramedic to RN and eventually to Director, and all along the way it was her love and passion of helping others that inspired her to stay in the profession for over 30 years and still counting.

 

Her ability to manage different personalities and at the same time put her personal desires on hold while pursuing the best possible outcomes for the program has been awe inspiring. I am beyond thankful for the mentorship and influence that I’ve received while teaching under her direction and I know that her legacy will last on for many generations to come.
