Donation going to British Columbia Ambulance Service
Lake Success, NY (Vocus/PRWEB ) February 22, 2010 -- EVAC+CHAIR North America, LLC, maker of the original, and lightest, evacuation chair on the market, today announced the company has donated its evacuation chairs to the British Columbia Ambulance Service for use by the Emergency Management Team based in Vancouver, host city of the 2010 Winter Olympics. The EVAC+CHAIR is designed to be used in a building evacuation situation for anyone who is incapacitated, or becomes incapacitated, and cannot evacuate quickly enough on their own. EVAC+CHAIR allows injured or mobility impaired persons to be placed into the chair and evacuated down stairs quickly and safely.
EVAC+CHAIR evacuation chairs greatly enhance safety in all evacuation situations as they allow sick, injured or disabled persons nearly immediate evacuation options in emergency situations where seconds count. They are especially important in large sporting venues where emergency responders will have a difficult time locating and reaching incapacitated individuals. As EVAC+CHAIR North America, LLC is the maker of the lightest chair on the market and is designed for simple one person operation, there is less need to find an assistant with sufficient strength to operate the chair. What’s more, EVAC+CHAIR is so intuitive to operate that little training is required.
“We are thrilled to donate the EVAC+CHAIR to the British Columbia Ambulance Service for use in Vancouver, host city of the 2010 Winter Olympics,” said Richard Perl, Vice President of Business Development for EVAC+CHAIR North America. “Our hope is that the chair never has to be used, but if the need arises we are proud that Vancouver, the host of the 2010 Winter Olympics, will have access to the best evacuation chair on the market, EVAC+CHAIR.”
