Danya Robinson is the Paramedic Field Chief for EMS District 7 of the Chicago Fire Department. She first appeared in Season 12.
Biography[]
Sometime after the events following Evan Hawkin's death, Robinson was made the Paramedic Field Chief of EMS District 7. Unlike her past predecessors, she holds more of a no-nonsense approach as the Chief. One paramedic that has received her ire was Violet Mikami. After Sylvie Brett got married to Matthew Casey and transferred to Oregon, she assigned Glenview medic Jared Lennox to Ambulance 61. Mikami seemed to believe Robinson had it out for her, especially after assigning her a partner she didn't recommend. After Wallace learned that DC Hill was stepping down to take a position in Oakland, California, he learned that he and Robinson were on a shortlist for Interim Deputy Commissioner. Robinson is revealed to be ambitious and knowing that Boden was well-liked, was determined to derail his chances of obtaining it. Though she was removed from the shortlist, she made it known that she was determined to get the job at a permanent stance. To make it appear she wasn't playing favorites and that she was serious about the job, she fired Lennox after he botched a call at a homeless encampment. Unfortunately for her, she was defeated by Boden for the job when Hill spoke on Boden's behalf and against Robinson over her corrupt actions.
