McBee Rescue is now carrying the EZ-IO Intraosseous Infusion System on our primary ambulance.
What is EZ-IO? The EZ-IO Intraosseous Infusion system is a complete solution for immediate vascular access in all patients larger than 3 kg. Used an estimated 350,000 times across the world the EZ-IO is the leading choice for intraosseous access in all care environments from the ambulance to the hospital to battlefield and beyond, the EZ-IO system is designed to help the medical professional gain vascular access in seconds to provide intravenous therapy to patients. EZ to use, EZ to train and EZ to maintain the EZ-IO is the clear choice of intraosseous solution for medical professionals and the best method to gain immediate vascular access…when you need it most.

Intraosseous Infusion System
EZ-IO™ from VidaCare™ is hand held battery powered device that provides fast, safe and controllable vascular access within seconds via the intraosseous route. The intraosseous space is a specialized area of the vascular system where blood flow is rapid and continues even during shock. Drugs and fluids infused via the intraosseous route reach the central circulation as quickly as those administered through standard IV access. EZ-IO™ is an alternative to failed emergency IV access.

McBee Rescue has purchased a Power-PRO XT...and the Stryker 6252 Stair Chair.
This model along with a Stryker stair chair greatly reduces the amount of lifting that is required on a Squad Call. It is battery operated and will lift patients up to 700 pounds. The stretcher is powered by 24 Volt Dewalt batteries and also can be operated manually if the battery fails.
Stryker’s industry-leading powered ambulance cot
answers the need for emergency transport that dramatically reduces
strenuous lifting and the associated risk of back injury. Power-PRO
features Stryker’s innovative powered hydraulic lift to raise and
lower patients with the touch of a button. The Power-PRO’s
groundbreaking design features set the standard for superior
performance and outstanding ergonomics.
McBee Rescue Squad continues to emphasize maintaining the most up to date technology and equipment to care for our patients. This has been our practice in the past and we hope to be able to continue this in the future. Thank you for your support of McBee Volunteer Rescue Squad ! ! !
