Medic is currently preparing for 4th of July Celebrations in Mecklneburg County. Medic will be deploying additional resources to areas that historically need more support and will add more to the field to better protect the entire county. In addition, Medic would like to remind the community of the hidden dangers associated with the 4th of July and how to protect themselves from becoming a statistic.
Medic and their partners from the Mecklenburg Medical Alliance and Endowment (MMAE) announced the donation of 14 AEDs to the Charlotte-Mecklenburg School System (CMS) through the Lucky Hearts Campaign, an AED/CPR focused initiative started by the two organizations in 2009.
In honor of American Heart Month, Medic will educate Mecklenburg County residents throughout the month of February on the importance of staying heart healthy by using a series of media-driven stories and through the Agency’s website www.medic911.com
Medic is hosting a first of its kind Recognition Event to celebrate the Agency’s outstanding performance treating and reviving patients in sudden cardiac arrest.
A team of seven Prehospital Care Specialists from the country of Georgia (formerly part of the Soviet Union) are traveling to Charlotte, NC to train with members of Medic’s Paramedic Training staff and faculty members from the Center for Prehospital Medicine, Carolinas Medical Center.
