News from the Lake County Sheriff’s Office
The Lake County Sheriff’s Office was recently awarded a $25,000 grant from a local family foundation to supply each sworn deputy with an Automatic External Defibrillator (AED). Additionally, the grant supplied an AED to be installed in the main Lake County Courthouse lobby. Pursuant to a condition of the grant, an updated training session was conducted on LCSO personnel in CPR and the use of AEDs.
Often times, our deputies are the very first responder on critical scenes requiring CPR and other first aid.This generous donation from a caring family will help us even better serve the community and further our mission to provide for the safety of our citizens. It is greatly appreciated, and we will undoubtedly save even more lives with this technology.
