About me
Robert Storck MPA, EMS-I, NRP has been involved in medicine and EMS since 2008 when took a year off between high school and college to do search and rescue in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. Dabbling in medicine while doing search and rescue was enough to keep him coming back for more. Following his year off, Robert attended Washington College in Chestertown, Maryland where he graduated with degrees in Molecular Biology and Behavioral Neuroscience. During his time at Washington College Robert worked as an EMT where he served on the dive rescue team and as an athletic trainer.
While EMS was always a passion of his, Robert had circuitous path to make medicine and education his career. Following graduation, Robert was recruited into finance where he became a commodities trader. During his time in finance Robert continued to pursue his passion, working as an EMT as night. Upon leaving that profession Robert worked as rowing coach and home flipper before ending up at Norwalk Hospital in 2014.

Robert regularly provides lectures on prehospital emergency care and continuing medical education to the paramedics and EMTs at Norwalk Hospital as well as at the surrounding fire departments and volunteer EMS organizations. His favorite topics to lecture on are botany, toxicology, and implicit bias. Robert has lectured nationally on toxicology at such conferences as the Emergency Nursing Association Conference.
