When a passenger suffered a medical episode aboard a packed plane, a Central Jersey Hatzolah Member came to the rescue.

The passenger began experiencing seizures after the plane left the gate at Chicago O’hare Airport, and member Josef Reiner, a licensed EMT, Jumped into action.

The Hatzolah member was able to stabilize the patient for approximately 30 minutes until the plane made its way back to the gate and paramedics could take over.
