Ambulance officers demo CPR machine

Michael and Daniel, two of Barham’s ambulance officers, attended the LHAC meeting this week to demonstrate to members and hospital staff the Lucas Machine. The machine is a mechanical CPR device that gives uninterrupted CPR to a patient who requires continual CPR after the initial 10-minute manual CPR. Local ambulance officers are currently sharing this device between cars when the need should arise. The piece of equipment is a great asset for our community, keeping us up to date with our city counterparts.
