The Welsh Ambulance Service has helped make a piece of history due to a special delivery from a medical supplies company.
Representatives from ZOLL Medical presented a plaque to the Welsh Ambulance Service HQ to celebrate the delivery of the 100,000th M Series defibrillator/monitor manufactured by the company.
At the presentation ZOLL's UK Managing Director, Mark Webster, who was accompanied by the company's EMS Manager, Steve Mather said, "I can certainly think of no better customer to take delivery of this landmark device, and we wanted to present the Trust with this plaque to mark the occasion."
Chief Executive Alan Murray explained it was an honour for the Trust to mark the special occasion of the delivery of an important piece of clinical equipment for emergency medical service staff. He said, "We are extremely pleased to have received this honour from ZOLL.
Defibrillators used by our staff can make that all important positive difference for a heart attack victim and I hope we can continue our relationship with this company to keep on improving how we treat cardiac patients
