The Branson West Police Department is now equipped to better assist citizens during a cardiac medical call thanks to a recently awarded grant.

“Prior to this grant, Branson West Police Department didn’t have access to AEDs and relied on First Responders to provide life-saving support, when needed,” Skaggs Foundation Director of Community Relations Mindy Honey told Branson Tri-Lakes News.
