Aesculap, a global leader in the production of surgical equipment and medical devices with a North American office in Hazelwood, recently presented a $250 check donation to Fire Chief Dave Radel of the Hazelwood Fire Department. The company wanted to express its appreciation to the department for efforts in organizing several meetings with its workforce relating to safety preparedness in times of emergency.<\/p>\n
The Hazelwood Fire Department has formed an excellent safety partnership with Aesculap by having its firefighters conduct informative presentations in the company\u2019s conference room for its employees. Some of the topics covered during these meetings involved evacuation procedures in case of fire, shelter in reinforced areas during times of tornadoes or other natural emergencies, and reaction to possible civil unrest within the building. The firefighters also reviewed the in-house first aid kits for updated supplies and accessibility.<\/p>\n
In addition, Aesculap management staff has invited fire department officials to do a \u201cwalk-through\u201d of their facility to look for any hazards or areas of concern in order to maintain the highest workplace safety standards for their employees. Plus, Hazelwood firefighters have been invited to view and critique an actual practice drill of a full-scale evacuation plan for employees.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re proud of the progress we\u2019ve made in working with Aesculap management in creating a safe working environment for their employees and putting in place proper safety protocols in case of emergency situations,\u201d said Battalion Chief Randy Getz. \u201cThis is our new model for building cooperative relationships with companies of all sizes in Hazelwood\u2019s business community.\u201d<\/p>\n
