Better Survivability in Heart Attacks in the LMRFD

The fire chief has applied for a grant for a mechanical CPR unit. This will improve the survivability for patients in cardiac arrest. It will allows a two man ambulance crew to run a effective cardiac call by allowing the paramedic to monitor the patient and push medications as the CPR unit does CPR at the correct depth and rate without getting tired like an EMT.

We need more people trained in CPR and AED use and have any business with an AED well marked on the building.
