The Mid-County Volunteer Rescue Squad recently donated an automated external defibrillator to the Northumberland Middle School. Captain Jeff Plumb tells River County News that having AEDs positioned strategically throughout the county can be the difference between life and death in a cardiac event. School officials say they appreciate the donation and the way it will help them respond should a medical emergency happen on campus. Mid County is one of 3 rescue squads in Northumberland County.
