The EMT squad is made up of Hank Beecham (Danso Gordon) who manages playing football with the high school team as well as being the EMT-Intermediate of the group; Val Lanier (
Reagan Pasternak
) who is noted for being an excellent student and cheerleader; Tyler Connell (
Shawn Ashmore
), a football player and Hank's best friend; and Jamie Waite (
Christopher Ralph
), the newest member of the squad initially there not by his own choice but as a result of a new program to help troubled teens get their life together by becoming EMTs.
Other characters in the series are Brooke Lanier (
Lauren Collins
), Val's twelve-year-old sister who volunteers with the squad after school and whose main job consists of managing the paperwork; and Caitie Roth (Jackie Rosenbaum), Val's best friend, a goth who is known for her dark clothes and purple-streaked hair.
