IV pumps donated to Tonkawa Fire Department

Stillwater Medical Center in Blackwell has donated 2 IV pumps to Tonkawa Fire Department. These have an estimated value of $500 per pump and are a great benefit to our EMS capabilities. With these pumps we are able to administer IV medications during critical transports to area hospitals. This will greatly improve our ability to provide transport for our people as they need medical services that are not available locally. It is great to partner with SMC Blackwell to provide the best possible care for citizens.
