Responding to emergency situations is what Oregon Department of Forestry fire engine crew members Penny Lehr and Greg Hart do for a living. So when they came upon a motorcycle accident recently, there was no hesitation. They administered first aid to the victims while paramedics from Bend Fire and Rescue rushed to the scene.
“My crew of two medics had their hands full because of the number of patients involved,” Fire and Rescue Captain Chuck Goss said. “The actions of Greg and Penny facilitated the quick stabilization of these patients. I had additional medic units arriving and each patient was ready for transport with no delay. It could not have happened as smoothly without their help.”
