Central Kitsap Fire and Rescue recently recognized three people for their assistance with administering CPR in emergency settings, including two daughters of firefighters.
The Civilian Action Award was presented at the Jan. 8 fire commissioners meeting to Olivia Wildes, daughter of CKFR paramedic Jeff Wildes, and Ella Dick, daughter of CKFR apparatus operator Amanda Rohr. Leslie Waldman, a local doctor, was also awarded the honor.
The daughters and Waldman were recognized for their actions in two instances in 2022 and 2023 that required them to assist with the administering of CPR. While at a local athletic event in March 2022, a spectator lost consciousness and Wildes determined the patient to be in cardiac arrest.
