BACKGROUND:
The Roswell Fire Department is requesting approval to purchase one (1) Stryker MX-PRO Bariatric Transport Gurney, one (1) Stryker Performance-LOAD Gurney, and one (1) LIFEPAK 35 Cardiac Monitor/Defibrillator to support the continued growth and operational readiness of the department's Emergency Medical Services Division.

This purchase will ensure the new ambulance is fully equipped with the essential patient care and transport equipment necessary to provide safe, efficient, and high-quality emergency medical services.
