Message from the director

Greetings, I am honored to serve as the Executive Director of the Mayes Emergency Servicers Trust Authority. My name is Erik Dickover, I was born and raised in Indiana, community service runs deep in my family. I served in the US Army, after which I dedicated myself to helping others. I started as a 911dispatcher and call taker for Broken Arrow Police and Fire Departments, this experience fueled my passion to become a paramedic, a journey that led me to serve with EMSA, Mercy, and Air Evac. It was during my time as a flight paramedic I felt a strong connection to the residents and first responders of Mayes County.

In February 2024, I joined the MESTA team as it Operations Manager, a role that prepared me for next step as Executive Director, of which I took up in October 2024, a position that will allow me to continue to serve the citizens of Mayes County, but also guide those whom serve with me to provide the care you deserve.

I currently live in Claremore with my wife Nicole and our five children, and with the support of my home family and my work family, I am committed to continue to build an agency that delivers exceptional care to our residents and visitors. Our team is dedicated to ensuring that Mayes County receives the highest standard of care and service, and I look forward to the opportunity to make a positive impact.
