On behalf of Pittsylvania County Schools' PCTC EMT program, we extend our sincere gratitude for the generous donation of a stretcher by the Chatham Rescue Squad. This will enhance hands-on training capabilities for students. This equipment provides the opportunity for students to experience realistic practice scenarios, allowing for the development of essential patient-handling skills in a controlled educational environment. This donation strengthens the program's ability to prepare students for professional emergency medical service roles and demonstrates community support for career and technical education.
