In a recent government meeting, emergency responders were commended for their life-saving efforts during a critical incident involving a 65-year-old male who was found unresponsive at his home. The patient’s wife alerted authorities, and upon arrival, Lehigh police officers directed EMS personnel to the scene, where bystanders were already performing CPR.

After six minutes of CPR and two defibrillation attempts, the patient regained a pulse and began breathing independently. He was then transported to Mountain Point Hospital, where he experienced supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) but was successfully cardioverted.

The meeting highlighted the collaborative efforts of various emergency responders, including Lehigh Police Officers and members of the Lehigh Fire Department. Their dedication to serving the community was praised, with officials expressing pride in their work. Although the families of those rescued were not present at the meeting, the responders' commitment to saving lives was a focal point of the discussion.

The event underscored the importance of emergency services in the community, reinforcing the notion that living in Lehi is enhanced by the presence of such dedicated professionals.
