LVAD Pass-On: 15524 Peach Orchard Road

Received notice today.  Chief Ryman handling TSR for CAD flagging.


Medics please take note.  I know that some stations have found it beneficial to have the medics visit the patient and actually see the equipment, but is may not be a wise course of action at this time due to the COVID-19 factor.
