Community Heroes

On a Sunday afternoon, Medic 3 and Rescue 1 were dispatched to K1 Speed on Port Jackson Avenue. Because of the life-saving efforts of James, Burley, Jayson Gajewski and Cory Salerno, they accomplished the critical links in the chain of survival. These heroes recognized the cardiac event, called 9-1-1, administered CPR with chest compressions, and rapidly defibrillated with an AED. All three had the opportunity to be reunited with Mr. Allen and his family last night as they were commended at the Jackson Township Board of Trustees, Stark County, Ohio meeting by Fire Chief Tim Berczik and the Jackson Township Administration as Community Heroes. The Jackson Township Fire Department, Stark County, Ohio thanks you for your service.
