PHOENIX – Firefighters and police officers showed some love to health care workers and patients at a Phoenix hospital Tuesday morning.
The first responders lined up fire trucks and police vehicles in front of Abrazo Central Hospital at 19th Avenue and Bethany Home Road.

One group of officers stood in a formation forming a heart.
“We value the teamwork with first responders and EMS,” Abrazo Central Interim CEO Ed Staren said in a press release.
“We are proud of everyone’s willingness to help and proud to be on the front lines serving our community during this pandemic.”
Last week, West Valley first responders gave a similar tribute at the Abrazo Arrowhead Hospital at 67th Avenue and Union Hills Drive in Glendale.
