Responding to Reported Cardiac Arrests is an additional service provided by the Lincoln Fire Co. volunteers. This week there were two reported. Rescue 16, both engines and Squad 16 carry AED’s. Over 25 members are trained in CPR to assist Emergency Medical Services with anything from life saving functions, to moving furniture to get the litter in the house, to assisting in taking the patient down stairs. When a citizen is in full arrest, there is only 4 to 8 minutes to save the person’s life. By having a full response of the local Emergency Medical Services, police (who also carry AED’s and are trained in CPR) and the local fire company give the patient their best chance for survival. A cardiac arrest is a total Team effort to save a life.
