Thank You!
Residents and friends have helped us raise over $30,000.
Your tax-deductible donation toward this equipment has made a difference to the safety of our residents, guests and visitors.
This piece of equipment is used by EMS professionals for assessing and monitoring vital signs – heart rate and respiration rate, pulse, blood pressure and oxygenation. BUT, it does more than that, and for all patient types, neonates through adults.
In cases of cardiac distress, its 12-lead electrocardiogram acquires and reports the electrical signals in the heart, and, with its cutting-edge open communication technology and remote view functionality, can transmit real-time monitor data to ambulance responders and receiving medical facilities for optimal patient care outcome.
And then there’s the defibrillator. This is used to revive a person from sudden cardiac arrest, a life-threatening event when the heart’s normal sequence of electrical impulses changes the rate or rhythm of the heartbeat, resulting in a lack of synchronism between heartbeat and pulse. The Zoll’s Real CPR technology provides valuable real-time compression analysis, interval timing, monitoring and voice command for EMS providing cardio-pulmonary resuscitation, CPR, in the field.
In 2022 the Peacham Department raised $30,000 for the purchase of a Zoll Series X monitor/ defibrillator, as described above, to continue to support you — our community — in delivering quality pre-hospital care when the need is there. THANK YOU!
