Acadian Ambulance is proud to welcome Robert Benoit to its team in the newly created role of Fire Liaison Supervisor.
Benoit recently retired from the Lafayette, LA Fire Department after 46 years of dedicated service. He held the role of Fire Chief for 32 years.
As the Fire Liaison Supervisor, Benoit will serve as the bridge between local and state fire departments and Acadian Ambulance Service, facilitating communication and collaboration. He will also be involved with incident communication and assisting outside agencies.
He will work closely with Acadian’s Vice President of Joint Operations Troy Guidry, who holds 44 years of service with the company. The Joint Operations role will focus on deeper collaboration with first responder agencies and to further strengthen the integration and efficiency of emergency response services.
“I am excited that we have an opportunity for Robert to share his knowledge and professionalism with our first responder partners and our medics,” Guidry said.
Benoit is a graduate of the University of Southwestern Louisiana (now University of Louisiana at Lafayette), holding a bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice/Law Enforcement Administration.
