SHERIFF'S OFFICE RECEIVES IFAK KITS

The Calvert County Sheriff’s Office, in conjunction with the Department of Public Safety, is proud to announce the issuance of an Individual First Aid Kit (IFAK) to every deputy of the Calvert County Sheriff’s Office.  The kits are custom made for the Calvert County Sheriff’s Office.  While the Sheriff’s Deputies will continue to be issued standard first aid kits, the IFAK contains readily deployable equipment that can help treat serious life threatening injuries.  The deputies were able to receive initial training, which will continue annually.  The kits were purchased with a Homeland Security Grant obtained by the Department of Public Safety.  Sheriff Mike Evans stated, “These kits will allow us to provide better care to the citizens of Calvert County, at no additional cost.”
