When there is a medical emergency and every second counts, access to an automated external defibrillator (AED) could be the difference between life and death. With that in mind, Neepawa’s Citizens on Patrol Program (COPP) has donated one of these important mobile devices to Budz ’n Bloom Daycare Centre. For now, the AED unit will be stationed at the current daycare facility at 101 Hamilton Street, but it will be transferred to their new location along Mountain Avenue once construction is completed.
