Inside The Movie Code 3: EMS, Burnout, and the Stories That Stay
In this episode of EMSconnect On Shift, we sit down with Patrick Pianezza, former Paramedic and Writer of the film Code 3, for an honest, inside look at telling EMS stories from someone who has actually lived them.
Patrick shares how his time on the streets shaped the characters, calls, and emotional weight of Code 3, why authenticity matters when portraying EMS on screen, and how cumulative stress, burnout, dark humor, and identity all find their way into the story. We talk about the calls that stay with you, the parts of the job the public never sees, and what it’s like to step away from the uniform while still serving the EMS community in a different way.
