♥️ LUCAS 3 Arrives in Kalgoorlie for 6-Month Trial

Kalgoorlie has been chosen as one of only two regional locations, alongside Geraldton, to trial the LUCAS mechanical CPR device. This cutting-edge technology will deliver consistent, high-quality cardiac care during emergencies, operated by Paramedics.

Our volunteers and Ambulance Transport Officers received awareness training on the device, as they could be crucial deploying the LUCAS in the community when required.

In a region where resources are stretched, the LUCAS device allows responders to focus on other critical tasks, ensuring the best possible care when it’s needed most.
