Karen Wilson

Event Medic

Karen has been an active member of St John for almost nine years. She has held a variety of roles within the organisation during that time, and is currently both working and volunteering as an Event Medic. Her favourite events include school sports days and downhill mountain bike races where St John crews become part of the local community. Karen is also the proud Leader of Blackwood Youth team, a Child Safe Environments Trainer, member of the State Casualty Simulation Team, and part of the Ambulance Wish program in South Australia. Having been on both sides of traumatic incidents, Karen is dedicated to increasing first aid knowledge in the community and is excited to be sharing such important lifesaving skills through the St John Drive-a-thon.
