| Ironwood - February 19, 2009
The Ironwood Area School District was
recipient of new Automatic External
Defibrillator. The AED, as it's
commonly called was donated to the school
district by Ironwood Volunteer Fire
Department.
The defibrillator was acquired by Chief Ken
Jacobson from the Pfizer Corporation .
A Defibrillator is a device for
arresting fibrillation of the atrial or
ventricular muscles of the heart. According to Tim Kolesar,
the entire school staff have been
trained how to use the device by the Red
Cross. Tim acknowledging his
appreciation of the donation also expressed
hope that it would never be needed. |
