Garwood Medical Devices, LLC is dedicated to helping others.
Buffalo, NY– February 8, 2023, At Garwood Medical Devices, our dedication to helping patients and saving lives does not stop with our BioPrax™ device.
On February 2, 2023, our team members participated in CPR, AED, and First Aid Training with a Certification by Buffalo CPR partnered with the American Heart Association. This certification prepares one for what to do when someone experiences a seizure, head and neck injuries, fractures, burns, wounds, choking, heart issues, and many other types of injuries.
The knowledge our staff learned from this training can increase the chance of survival in the case of an emergency till the emergency medical team arrives. Whether this emergency happens in our office or outside it, we want our staff to be able to help others.
Congratulations to Wayne Bacon, Greg Pepe, Mary Canty, Doreen McClain, Jackson Hobble, Mary Bacon, Bernadette Zumpano, Jacob Opalinski, Riley Ritchey, Tripti Gupta, Morgan Schnee, Bill Purcell, and Emily Herberger for completing the training program and earning their certifications.
