Pottawatomie County Emergency Medical Services was awarded the largest grant in its history — $134,729 from the Patterson Family Foundation.
The grant will be used to purchase five new Stryker Power Pro 2 power-assisted ambulance cots. EMS Director Andrew Couchman spoke to the Pottawatomie County Commissioners on Monday saying, “This is an item that gets used every day by every crew. If we have a failure on that cot, we have a significant chance of injury to the crew or patient. Short of the truck that we use every day it is the next piece of equipment.”
