June 1-7 each year is National CPR and AED Awareness Week, spotlighting how lives can be saved if more Americans know CPR and how to use an AED.

Did you know about 70 percent of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests happen in homes?

If you are called on to give CPR in an emergency, you will most likely be trying to save the life of someone you love. Be the difference for your parent, spouse, or child.

What if it were them?

Thank you for a great Community CPR Class, thankful to see the younger crowd participating in this education opportunity.

👉CPR – or Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation –👈 is an emergency lifesaving procedure performed when the ❤️heart stops beating. Immediate CPR can double or triple chances of survival after cardiac arrest.👀

🌟Why Is CPR Important?🌟
Keeping the 🩸blood flow active – even partially – extends🕒 the opportunity for a successful resuscitation once trained medical staff arrive on site.

Praying with our neighbors for this family today.

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of a valued member of the Pafford EMS Family, Willie Dukes, Jr.

Willie faithfully served as a Driver with Pafford EMS since 2018. Throughout his years of service, he demonstrated dedication, professionalism, and compassion while supporting our crews and the communities we serve. His presence and commitment will truly be missed by all who had the privilege of working alongside him.

Please keep the Dukes family, friends, and loved ones in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
