The Department
of Public Safety is a non-transporting Basic Life Support
(BLS) service and proud member of the Provena Covenant EMS
System.
When seconds
count, officers rely on patrol vehicles stocked with medical
supplies for mobile care and numerous supply stations throughout
the campus for a rapid response.
The college has purchased several automated external
defibrillators (AED) which have been placed throughout the campus and also in
police patrol vehicles.
All patrol officers have been
trained in the use of the AEDs and when necessary
can deploy the units and administer the life saving techniques as prompted by the device.
