Santa Rosa, CA November 1st, 2007
verihealth, Inc. a Sonoma
County based Ambulance Company has Donated It's Second Ambulance
to the Fire Department of Cabo San Lucas, Mexico
On October 27th Comandante Juan Antonio Carbajal Figueroa and three
other bomberos (firemen) from Cabo San Lucas arrived in their rental
car after driving more than 24 hours at verihealth in Petaluma
to pick up from Gary Tennyson, CEO verihealth and Ken Bradford
Director of verihealth / REACH Training Institute the second ambulance
in almost a year to be donated to the fire department of Cabo San
Lucas.
verihealth's commitment was reaffirmed after receiving an e-mail
from Commandante Juan Carbajal of the Cuerpos de Bomberos in Cabo
San Lucas. The e-mail stated the concerns of the fire department
over the recent near death experience of an infant they were attempting
to transport to a hospital in La Paz over 120 miles from Cabo.
During the long drive and keeping the child alive on a ventilator,
one of the few ambulances for the population in Cabo was involved
in an accident with a large bull attempting to cross the road.
It is critical to the health and well being of so many locals and
tourists alike in Cabo to have operable and reliable ambulances
that verihealth decided to donate a second vehicle and include
other donations so desperately needed within the greater Cabo San
Lucas community.
Through the efforts of verihealth's Ken Bradford and several community
partners; Life-Assist, Tri-anim Health Services, City of Rohnert
Park Dept. of Public Safety, Sonoma Valley Fire Med, St. Helena
Fire Dept.and the Santa Rosa Junior College Public Safety Training
Center provided much needed medical and fire safety equipment.
Mary Ann Mahoney, Annika & Jason Clough, Galand and Joanne
Chapman provided additional support with the donation of children's
toys, diapers and clothing. After a quick one hour loading of the
'94 ambulance it was on its way for the long drive home. verihealth
received an e-mail after that it arrived safe and sound and much
to the delight of the bomberos and the entire Cabo San Lucas community.
verihealth's mission is to be a market leader of safe and
reliable medical solutions provided by a team of highly valued
professionals always patient focused and community centered
