During National Heart Month in February 2024, our chest pain coordinator, Tammy Freehling, RN, joined the Los Angeles County Fire Department Station 182’s Captain Brandon Comfort, Engineer Elmer Torrez; and Firefighter Tanner Osterkamp, to demonstrate Sidewalk/Hands-Only CPR and use of an automatic external defibrillator (AED).
