North Platte — The City of North Platte was recently the recipient of a $500 Lean on LARM Safety Grant to purchase trauma kits for the police department.
“The funding assures that we have adequate supplies to equip each of our police cruisers with Tactical Medical kits. These kits will give our Police First Responders life-saving options they can utilize prior to the arrival of ambulance personnel,” said Deputy Chief Kendall Allison, North Platte Police Department.
The League Association of Risk Management (LARM) provides the Lean on LARM Safety Grant to LARM members to purchase items that contribute to the safety of their communities.
Officer Toby Smith is one of the two North Platte Police Department Tac-Med instructors who will use the trauma kits.
