Grayslake Makes Save

 

FEBRUARY 2023

On an early February morning, Grayslake Firemen responded to a local business for reports of a patient having a stroke. Upon their arrival, Grayslake Police were performing CPR on the patient who was in fact in cardiac arrest. Grayslake Fire personnel took over lifesaving interventions, achieved ROSC and transported the patient. The patient later left the hospital.
