Ford is graduating this Spring with a BKin in the interdisciplinary stream. Upon graduation, Ford plans to practice prehospital care as a paramedic or physician.
When asked why he decided to join UBC KIN, Ford says, “I was drawn to the program as it was well regarded. KIN has a great community feel and a definite focus on combining academics with practical skills.” Ford believes that “it’s important to also have fun outside of the classroom – making friends and having novel experiences is what university is all about.” Ford was also a member of the KUS in his first and second years.
Presently, Ford conducts research with BC Emergency Health Services and the St. Paul’s Emergency Department under Dr. Brian Grunau. “I am currently working on publications in paramedic assessment of ECMO candidates and pediatric out of hospital cardiac arrest.”
