Hey Everyone! I thought I would highlight the work of our Emergency Medical Technicians as they continue to do their job and serve our community and its residents despite the real risks inherent in providing emergency medical assistance during this pandemic. I can tell you that without any hesitation, they have responded to this crisis with incredible professionalism, commitment, ingenuity and empathy. This is their time to meet the needs of the members of our community they serve, and they do so day and night without complaint or reservation.
So the “ingenuity” part is what made we want to share my thoughts with you. I am attaching some pictures that show you how they have been working….to treat their patients safely…and to give them the confidence that they are in the midst of truly committed medical professionals and will be well taken of.
The picture of the cot outfitted with the PVC framework was made by our EMTs. It allows for a plastic covering to be placed over it so that the transportation of patients can be done safely and securely. Their work clothes are more like hazmat suits now. Once the service is completed, the decontamination of the cot and the interior of the transport vehicle is done….every time.
To all of our residents, please do not be afraid to call for medical assistance. Our EMTs have your safety in mind, and are able to their job whether during a pandemic or not!
Thank you Chief Chrissie Vincent, EMT Ray Hallock, EMT Susan Ash, EMT Jesse Weinberg, EMT Dave Zavacky, EMT Ryan Hafner, EMT Felix Diaz, EMT Kirk Everett, EMT Jason Machusak and Jack Oakley, Director of Fire and Emergency Medical Services. Well done!
Be Smart, Be Safe and Be Responsible!👊👊✌️
