T
he entire staff of the Millington Arbela District Library is now trained in basic First Aid, the use of the Automated External Defibrillator (AED), and have received CPR Certification. Cardiopulmonary resus­ci­ta­tion (CPR) is a life­sav­ing tech­nique use­ful in many emer­gen­cies, includ­ing heart attack or near drown­ing, in which some­one’s breath­ing or heart­beat has stopped.

It is hoped that these skills will nev­er need to be put to use. However, if the need should arise, the staff is ready to respond. The next step in this project is to buy a portable defib­ril­la­tor, pos­si­bly with grant funds.
