Ross/West View EMSA was the recipient of an Anonymous donation of 3 Binder Lift devices along with our very first EMS prehospital care Ultra Sound.
Crews have already placed the Binder Lifts into service which helps us safely lift patients who have fallen from unusual positions to a safe standing or seated position. The device helps us make the lift more comfortable and safe for our patients while protecting our crews during the move.
Training will begin next week on the Butterfly Ultrasound. Crews will initially use the device to assist in the placement of challenging intravenous access and look at cardiac activity. As the experience progresses, the device will help us look at traumatic injuries along with a variety of other clinical presentations. Crews will learn detailed anatomy and physiology through the addition of this advanced medical device.
A special thank you to our secret admirer!!
