        Congratulations to our newest Paramedic, Maxie Porter.  Maxie successfully completed his practical examination last week.  It is now a wait on paperwork.  Congratulations Maxie!!!!!

        MCR is proud to announce improvements to our patient care capabilities.  We recently received a second "autopulse" device from Zoll Medical.  Medic 1 and Medic 2 are both now equipped with this life-saving device, and we also purchased BCI Capnograph II units for our medic trucks.

        MCR's Annual Awards Banquet and Christmas Party was held at Captain George's Seafood Restaurant in Myrtle Beach.  In an experimental change of format, MCR personnel decided that they wanted to change the way we celebrated Christmas together.  Instead of a large party, we decided to have a quiet dinner with MCR personnel and their families.  The 2008 Ryan Bozard award for clinical excellence was awarded to JoJo Turbeville, and the Dana Crosland award was given to Brent Steen.  MCR personnel will decide shortly on what kind of Christmas gathering we will have this year.
