One of the first kits to be donated went to the Kentville Fire Department, and firefighters have used it many times. Recently, firefighters used the mask to revive a cat. “It really comes down to just making sure that our first responders have the appropriate tools on hand, because when a crisis happens, it comes down to seconds that make a difference,” Zwicker said.
