Vet Students Donate Pet Oxygen Masks To Escambia Fire Rescue
January 26, 2016
The Pensacola State College’s Veterinary Technology Program presented Escambia County Fire Rescue with five sets of pet oxygen masks Monday.
The masks were donated by students in the class.
Veterinary Technology Program Director Sarah Meyer-Paterson made the presentation to Escambia Fire Rescue Captain Craig Ammons at the PSC Warrington Campus.
“We have been very fortunate to have used these several times in the past with great success,” Ammons said. “This will replace where our people have been very creative and used water bottles and oxygen tubing. So this will help out tremendously.”
