Today, we responded to a burn call at the Allentown Service Plaza. Supervisor West drove the truck with the horse trailer back to our station, while Fellow Medical Director Dr. Jillian took the Supervisor vehicle. Meanwhile, our team—Mark, Lexi, and two EMT students—transported the patient to the hospital. We kept the horse (named crush kill destroy) safe in our garage until the patient’s brother arrived from New Jersey to bring the horse home. Great job to everyone involved! 🐎

Knowing the importance of CPR:

Yesterday a male resident at his Upper Macungie Township home had a cardiac arrest. His wife began CPR nearly immediately until the Upper Macungie Township Police Department, Upper Macungie Township Station 56, and Good Will Fire Co. No. 1 of Trexlertown arrived. The police used their AED to defibrillate the patient twice. The man began to breathe and had strong pulses and was awake and breathing when EMS arrived. Cetronia Ambulance Corps took over treatment and transported him to the hospital. Great job to all the crews that assisted on this call.
This gentleman is alive today because of the quick actions of his wife and the fast response from our police and fire partners. This is why it is so important to know CPR! Find a class today, https://www.cetronia.org/education/community-education/

Today is National Bring Your Dog to Work Day, and we’re getting some much-needed puppy therapy! Nothing like an English Bulldog to brighten up the office! 🐾❤️
