Norwich Township Fire Department crews recently completed pediatric CPAP training, giving providers another option for small patients struggling to breathe.
Norwich Township Fire Department is based in Hilliard, Ohio, and provides fire, rescue and EMS services to the greater Hilliard area—a location distinct from the article’s Dallas metro label. The department’s service area and location are described by the City of Hilliard, which lists the township fire department at its Northwest Parkway address.
New Training Puts a Tool in Crews' Hands
The department said it recently completed pediatric CPAP training for its crews, led by Kyle Goodknight, giving providers another option for small patients struggling to breathe. NTFD also said it utilizes the Handtevy app to identify treatment options and provides Handtevy resources to its crews as part of its broader push to offer advanced pediatric training.
Handtevy grew out of a pediatric resuscitation system developed by emergency physician Peter Antevy, who sought to make medication dosing and treatment decisions easier during high-pressure pediatric emergencies. The company’s mobile tools provide dosing guidance, equipment sizing and access to protocols. Those functions help explain how the app mentioned by Norwich Township fits into the department’s pediatric-care approach, alongside hands-on training. Handtevy’s history and mission describe the system’s origins and purpose.
