The state program helps White River Township Fire with heart monitors buy

A state program has helped the White River Township to buy new automated heart monitors.

Indiana Bond Bank has financed the White River Township Fire Protection District by buying or helper in Hoosier equipment with the financing of buying new automated external defibrillators, which are also known as heart monitors. The new monitors needed for the fire brigade's transportation service, including livelihood. The monitors they had used were 10 or more years old, said Jeremy Pell, fire chief.

“They should be replaced by new technology, age and reliability. This gave us the opportunity to replace our heart monitors, which we may otherwise not have could,” said Pell.

Since its foundation, the Help program has financed over 471 million US dollars for essential equipment for the Indiana communities. According to the state treasury of Indiana State in Indiana, the Help program supports the Indiana communities by receiving the Indiana communities through a “standardized and efficient” rental sales process.

It offers standard rental contracts with flexible repayment options for competitive rates. Due to the effective securing of competitive offers from various financial institutions nationwide, the program ensures the lowest financing costs and thus saves tax money, the treasurer said.

“With just one side form, the help program is super easy, the cities and cities help to achieve great prices with flexible terms. Without them, many places cannot afford the equipment they need to run things smoothly, ”said Daniel Elliot, treasurer of Indiana State, in the press release.

The recent purchase of Heart Monitor is not the first time that White River Township Fire used the program. Officials used it to buy ambulances and firetrucks because of their advantages, said Pell. The program makes the purchases affordable and at the same time balanced how the department is budgeted and uses tax money, he said.

“We all know that it is difficult to make a big purchase because it is difficult to find so much money. With this auxiliary program we can stay up to date over a longer period of time and budget, ”said Pell.

According to Pell, White River Township Fire has a heart for the community, is very mission and humanly aligned and has a prioritized life life. The department has invested in mobile integrated health and came out of paramedics and checked the people “all the way through this emergency”.

The auxiliary program is the key to these efforts. The new heart monitors give the first aiders the latest technology to examine the cardiac arrhythms of the patients, treat them accordingly and pass on the information to the hospital – time and heart muscle, said Pell.

“That is our goal. We not only want to take people to the hospital in good time, but also give them the best opportunity for a very long quality of life, ”he said. “So these heart monitors are of crucial importance for our paramedics that have the information they need for work.”

The new monitors have progressed so far as far as doctors record the heart rhythm of a patient, upload it electronically into their patient care software and send electronically to hospitals – depending on whether the facility has the technology to receive it, Pell said.

“Imagine what a difference would do,” said Pell. “You call 911 from home from home and you are 30 minutes from the hospital. We will be between four and eight minutes in your house in your house, have a heart monitor, check your heart's rhythm and pick it up right there, pick up the phone and call a doctor in the hospital and say: 'Hey, that's what we have. Can you give us another direction beyond our medical protocols? “
