Approved ARPA Project: EMS Stryker Loader System, $115,138

The Stryker Power Load System was installed across all the Henderson County EMS ambulances as a component of this initiative. These devices work in conjunction with the Power Pro stretchers used by our paramedics to significantly reduce the risk of injury while loading stretchers into ambulances. Henderson County has been able to drastically reduce the number of back injuries among EMS employees and First Responders after using the Power Pro stretchers. The inclusion of the Power Load system will help to decrease injuries and provide better treatment to our patients. The Board of Commissioners voted to approve $117,170.00 of the County's awarded ARPA funds for this initiative. As of this year, this project has been completed.
