The Cudahy Fire Department alongside the Milwaukee County Office of Emergency Management would like to recognize and thank four outstanding lifeguards who stepped up during a medical emergency in July of last year.

When a gentleman suffered a medical event, these lifeguards immediately recognized the seriousness of the situation and initiated CPR before first responders arrived. Their quick actions, training, and willingness to act played an important role in giving this individual a fighting chance.

We are especially happy to share that the gentleman made a full recovery and is doing well today. His recovery is a wonderful reminder of how important it is to recognize an emergency, act quickly, and know what to do when every second counts.

Today, we want to recognize these four lifeguards for their hard work, dedication, and commitment to helping others. Being a lifeguard is about much more than watching a pool—it means being prepared to respond when someone needs help, and these four demonstrated exactly what that means.

On behalf of the Cudahy Fire Department, thank you for stepping up, taking action, and making a difference when it mattered most. We are proud to recognize you and the important role you played in this incident.
