In this podcast episode we want to introduce you to our BCEN Friend, Tyler Reeves.

Tyler Reeves started his career at Clara Barton Hospital in Great Bend, KS. He advanced from CNA to LPN and then RN, eventually spending a decade there with an initial start in med-surg then moving to the Emergency Department. While working in the ED, Tyler had the opportunity to join the Barton County Transfer Service as a ground transport nurse for four years.

In 2018, Tyler became a flight nurse with EagleMed, initially stationed in Goodland, KS. Here he obtained his CFRN and CEN credentials. Tyler also furthered his prehospital training becoming a Nationally Registered Paramedic in 2022 and gaining experience at Ellis County EMS.

In August 2022, Tyler transferred to a new rotor base, EagleMed 10 in Great Bend, KS, where he has taken on roles as the QA Coordinator, Clinical Coach, and Base Educator. In addition to his roles at EagleMed, Tyler keeps busy as the founder of KanStaff Nurses LLC, pulling shifts with Ellis County EMS and his favorite role of being a dad. Tyler has grown his career in the past 11 years as a nurse and continues to excel in his diverse and impactful career. It’s no surprise to those that know Tyler that he was the recipient of the 2024 Distinguished CFRN Award.

Come along as Janie Schumaker and Hollye Briggs talk with Tyler about his career in flight nursing. He will discuss his passion for patient care, and what keeps him motivated. This episode is called, “More than My Hometown: Spotlight on the 2024 Distinguished CFRN Award Winner.”
