Shawsville Rescue Squad donates AED to Waldron Y

The Shawsville Rescue Squad has donated an automated external defibrillator (AED) to the Waldron Family YMCA.

Shawsville Rescue Squad Capt. John Akers presented the AED to the Y earlier this month. An AED is a portable electronic device that automatically diagnoses a potentially life threatening cardiac arrhythmia in a patient and treats it through the application of electrical therapy to reestablish an effective rhythm.

“We appreciate the Shawsville Rescue Squad donating this much-needed equipment,” said Waldron Family Y wellness director Staci Boone. “It’s reassuring to know we have this life-saving device here in case — God forbid — we ever need to use it.”

Located in The Meadowbrook Center in Shawsville, the Waldron Family Y is the only workout facility between Christiansburg and Salem. The Shawsville Rescue Squad is an all-volunteer organization. For more information, please visit http://shawsvillerescue.org/.
