Celina firefighters and paramedics Adam Schroyer, from top, John Houser and Aaron Beougher demonstrate how their new stair chair is used to transport patients up and down steps when lack of space prohibits them from using a cot or gurney. The chair and other equipment received in January was purchased with funds donated by the Mercer County Health Care Foundation.
