Cardiac Arrest Reversal 7.3.14

On Thursday July 3rd, crews from Colonie Fire Company and Colonie EMS were dispatched to the home of an elderly patient in Cardiac Arrest.  Hearing the radio transmission, several members reported directly to the scene to start CPR.  Colonie EMS and several other CFC members followed shortly after with an AED and additional ALS equipment. By time the patient was loaded into the ambulance for transport to the hospital a good pulse was confirmed.

Great work by Chief Brian Curran, Lieutenant Marc Poskus, FF Frank Cuoccio Sr, FF Keith Fogg, FF Carlos Quiles Jr, FF Frank Cuoccio Jr, Fire Police Lt. Ray Hughes and members from Colonie EMS on a Successful Save!
