DANCE TO BENEFIT' HOSPITAL PROGRAM (Continued from page 1) county and western Lake county," Cunat observed. "At that time, we could not have foreseen the extent and the success of the programs it would inaugurate. "Today its Mobile ICU program is the model and in­ spiration for other rural areas. As the largest paramedic program in the midwest, the McHenry county-western Lake county MICU program covers 750 square miles; seventeen < rescue squads and ambulance services provide skilled emergency care to the ill and injured. It has saved countless lives." More than 400 emergency medical technicians have been trained by the Trauma center; of these, more than 150 have become certified paramedics in the Mobile ICU program. These paramedics provide advanced life-support at the scene of heart attacks, illness, or ac­ cidents, utilizing Intensive Care ambulances equipped with electrocardiogram telemetry, two-way MERCI radios and sophisticated life- support mechanisms. "In 1972, when McHenry hospital agreed to serve as a Trauma center, and in 1975, when the Mobile ICU program began, there were literally no programs in this country for rural emergency health care. Today our Mobile ICU program is being hailed as a practical example of how effective rural emergency care can be," Cunat remarked.

Because our paramedics are volunteers, not full-time ambulance crews - and because our Mobile In­ tensive Care program cannot depend on federal, .state or county governments for its maintenance - we, the citizens who benefit from this program, must show our willingness to support its continuance and expansion.
