VINCENNES, Ind. - The Daviess Community Hospital Foundation has
donated an Automated Electronic Defibrillator to Vincennes University.
The portable device aids someone who is experiencing sudden
cardiac arrest by transmitting a shock to return the person’s heart to
a regular rhythm. The AED will benefit student athletes and spectators
at VU sporting events. It will help VU athletic trainer Hali
Sindlinger provide medical assistance in the case of an emergency.
Angie Steiner, director of the DCH Foundation, presented the
AED to VU Athletic Director Harry Meeks and Sindlinger during halftime
of the men’s basketball game on Dec. 9.
