The Calhoun County commissioner’s court voted to accept a $50,000 donation from the Ed Rochelle Foundation to purchase replacement Lucas automated CPR devices for county responders. The court record says the funds will help replace about eight devices across agencies and voluntary organizations that are no longer serviceable.
A county representative explained the Lucas device performs continuous chest compressions and can extend the effective period of care beyond what a single rescuer can sustain: "So it does CPR for you... it doesn't get tired, and it just keeps going," the speaker said. Commissioners approved acceptance of the funds and authorized required grant paperwork.
