9 PURPOSE (Brief explanation of what is to be purchasc(I, why it is needed,
what is the consequence of not funding - use only the space available)
Boynton Beach fire dept. is currently listed as one of the CPR
community training centers by the American Heart Association.
We are requesting two additional CPR manikins to replace two
very worn old manikins. These manikins will also be used to
teach ACLS and BTLS courses through out the county.
The second part of our request will be for cervical immobilization
devices to upgrade our rescue equipment. One of the greatest liabilitie
confronted by our EMS personnel is the proper stabilization of potential
Cervical spine injuries, a improperly controlled C -spine could lead
to disastrous medical and legal complications. We wish to purchase
new equipment which will allow quick and easy stabilization of all
trauma victims.

COMMENTS:
As a community CPR center we teach many courses throughout the year,
we also are active in teaching Advanced Cardiac Life Support for the
American Heart Association. We are currently using manikins supplied
by our dept. and the American Heart Assoc. We would like to return the
manikins back to the AHA and replace those with our own. •
Liability is a very great concern for all health care providers these
days, one of the greatest liabilities deals with the proper care of the
traumatized patient. This is especially true in dealing with Cervical
Spine injuries. By purchasing state of the art immobilization equip. we
hope to reduce the risk.
