Testimonials
What People Say
The John M. Gray Center has proudly received a semi-automated external defibrillator (SAED) from the Grenfell Foundation. Having this piece of equipment readily available in the JMG Center allows staff to quickly respond to an emergency while awaiting the arrival of ambulance services. All JMG Staff are certified in CPR and the use of SAED in emergency situations when every second counts.
A cardiac arrest (when the heart stops beating) can strike anyone at any time. An emergency responder trained in CPR and SAED usage having this equipment available during an emergency doubles the victim’s chance of survival.
The staff, residents and family members of the JMG Center extend their sincere thanks for this donation of vital equipment.
