RUGBY, N.D. — The Rugby Emergency Medical Services unit received a $90,000 grant from the North Dakota Department of Health, which it will put toward a number of upgrades and programs.

The grant was through the North Dakota EMS Funding area grant program, established by the legislature three years ago, according to Ken Reed, EMS director at Heart of America Medical Center.

Part of the money will go toward the continuing effort to be prepared for cardiac emergencies, outfitting more law enforcement agents with Automatic External Defibrillators and making them accessible at some public places.
