Healthcare


New to the parish in 2002 is the AED (Automated External Defibrillator) equipment. All district fire departments and the Grant Parish Sheriff’s Office have AED equipment and trained operators. The American Heart Association and Rapides Foundation donated the AEDs to the parish agencies.
