Equipment 

In 2010 thanks to the generosity of the Thomaston Savings Bank we were able to purchase two Stryker battery powered stretchers. TSB’s grant of $10,639.20 greatly assisted in our ability to purchase these units.  

​

Since 1989, Harwinton EMS has utilized defibrillator units for patients experiencing cardiac arrest.  We were one of the first non-paramedic level services in the area to purchase these devices.  We currently use Cardiac Science Units on our ambulances and were acquired at a cost of $2,550 per unit.  As these units are replaced we rotate them into the first responder inventory so our members have the ability to get a defibrillator on scene quickly. ​​
