Hermiston Police De- partment Chief Jason Edmiston said the de- partment recently pur- chased four portable AED units and a training unit. The portable units will be placed in four patrol vehicles driven by sergeants and corporals.

Edmiston said in an email that years ago while on patrol he arrived be- fore paramedics at a lo- cal restaurant where a customer was having a heart attack. He said he performed CPR with an- other patron, but had no success. He said research shows that using an AED early during an emergen- cy can increase the pa- tient’s chances at survival. “Our troops having yet another resource at their disposal is import- ant for us in our attempt to provide as profession- al of a service to those we serve as possible,” he wrote.
