Cabanas resigns
Monday, September 21, 2015 by Elizabeth Pagano
Dr. Jose Cabanas, who has served as acting medical director for the Austin/Travis County Office of the Medical Director since August, has resigned. He will be leaving his post in November. According to a memo from City Manager Marc Ott to the mayor and City Council, in early December Cabanas will start work as director of emergency medical services/medical director at Wake County EMS in Raleigh, North Carolina. Cabanas will also serve as adjunct faculty at the University of North Carolina Department of Emergency Medicine at Chapel Hill’s EMS Fellowship Program. The move will be a return for Cabanas, who worked for the Wake County EMS from 2008-2011.
