RE: Stabilization straps

Thanks Wade.  Maybe a quick familiarization session for all personnel throughout the next week would be a good thing.  Just something to think about.

Three new ratchet straps have come in and are located by the cribbing at the base of the loft stairs. These were purchased from the extrication grant and the thought behind them was to be used for initial stabilization of a vehicle. Please get familiar with them and how to put the ratchet end and the strap together.

Hello All,

 

We have switched out the Accu-Chek BGL meters for new Abbott’s Freestyle meters.  Please see the attached pictures of the meters and strips.  Each strip is individually wrapped which lessen the chance of contamination.  The meters due require calibration when switching to a new lot of strips, all of the new meters are calibrated to the current lot of strips.  The procedure for obtaining a BGL is the same as the Accu-Chek, but the foil wrapping must be removed prior to inserting the strip.  If you have any questions please let me know.  AB

2522 Back in service from valve repair

Hello All,

 

2522 is back in service.  PW shops replaced the tank to pump valve.  C-shift re-filled the water tank and inspected the inlet from the tank to the pump for any leaks.  No leaks were visible, 2522 was returned to service.

The 4 cribbing straps came in and I placed them around the 4 x 4's. They are all over by the stairs leading to the loft above the weight room.
