New CPR machine purchased for GRMC paramedics
Get the FULL Story

CNA staff reporter bpoolman@crestonnews.com
Up, down. Up, down. That’s how a person does CPR, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, when another person can’t breathe. Paramedics at Greater Regional Medical Center now have a LUCAS CPR machine to do that for them while they care for any patients in other ways. “A LUCAS CPR machine is a device that does the compressions for the responders,” said Ryan Burwell, EMS manager at Greater Regional Medical Center. “This one is made by
Physio Control. It does the compressions, and it does them consistently, so you get the proper blood flow to the heart and the lungs.” Burwell, who has been in emergency medical services for 17 years, spent time in Clarinda and Shenandoah before joining the team at Greater Regional. He has been at the hospital for 15 years.
LUCAS
The machine has two parts: the board that goes behind the patient, and the top half where the piston and buttons are. The two connect, and must be separated manually. “It has this nice piston design,
so you can set your depth per person,” Burwell said. “With this, you can set it either to your 30 to 2 compressions, or continuous compressions.” Currently, compressions should be done 30 times to a patient, then two breaths should be given for an adult in any form of cardiac arrest, like a heart attack. Children and infants should have 15 compressions before breaths are given. Compressions should be approximately one and a-half to two inches in depth. With the use of the CPR

Creston’s Postmaster Kevin Herzberg retired from the post office after 22 years of service between Des Moines and Creston Thursday. The crew celebrated with a cake reception. Julie Ackley is the acting officer in charge until a new postmaster is named. Ackley said it can take between 30 and 90 days for a new postmaster to be named.
Wednesday night will be a night of wild animals, magic tricks and feats of derring-do under the big top as the Carson & Barnes Circus returns to Creston for two shows. The self-proclaimed “world’s biggest big-top show” will perform at 4:30 and 7:30 p.m. at Creston Elementary/Middle School, 805 Academic Ave. The circus last visited Creston in August 2013. KSIB Radio will be sponsoring the event. Chad Rieck, KSIB general manager, said the show has experienced great local reception in the past, which is why it’s back so soon.

“They like to go where people want to go see them, and we’ve always had a strong history in this area of people wanting to go,” he said. “Peo- Rieck ple like it, especially the fact that they still bring the live animals. Some of the live circuses have gone away from that.” Rieck said the show’s timing, right before Fourth of July weekend, should be good for many families. “We don’t have the carnival anymore, so this will be kind of a nice deal to have for the kids pre-Fourth of July,” he said.
The shows will last about two hours each. A pre-show midway will allow circusgoers to see and touch exotic animals and, for a small charge, take an elephant or pony ride. Rieck said the public is invited to watch the unloading and setting up of the tent, which he said normally begins around 8:30 or 9 a.m. the morning of the show. KSIB will provide updates throughout the day to let listeners know what is going on. Roots of the Carson & Barnes Circus go back to 1937, when Obert Miller, current Carson & Barnes co-owner Barbara Byrd’s grandfather, began a dog and pony show in Kansas. Today, the Carson & Barnes circus travels eight and one-
half months out of the year to more than 200 locations around the United States. Byrd said that from motorcycles to pirates to the beloved performing elephants, there’s an act in this year’s show for everyone. “We have a fantastic show that really appeals to all generations,” she said. “It’s a real unique opportunity to just come out and have a good, old-fashioned fun time at the circus.” New to the show this year is Cirque du Soleil veteran and bounce juggler Luis Miguel Terry. Perennial favorites include the Dominguez Extreme Riders motorcyclists, the trapeze artist Please see CIRCUS, Page 2A
