The Rural Health Clinic of Loreauville is proud to announce the donation of two Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) to support the health and safety of our local community. One AED was donated to St. Joseph’s Catholic Church and the other to Our Lady of Victory Catholic Church, providing lifesaving emergency equipment for parishioners, visitors, and community members.
This donation is dedicated in loving memory of Brock Romero’s father, the late Dr. James R. Romero, M.D., along with the late Dr. Raymond F. Schneider, M.D., his daughter, Nancy Schneider, APRN-FNP, and the late Dr. John Rellus Hebert Sr., DDS, all whose unwavering compassion, selfless service, and lifelong commitment to providing exceptional healthcare to the people of Loreauville left a lasting legacy that continues to inspire the mission and values of The Rural Health Clinic of Loreauville.
Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) are lifesaving devices designed to provide immediate assistance during sudden cardiac arrest, significantly improving the chances of survival while awaiting emergency medical services. By placing these devices within our local churches, The Rural Health Clinic of Loreauville hopes to provide an added layer of safety and preparedness for parishioners, visitors, and all who gather for worship and community events.
"At The Rural Health Clinic of Loreauville, our commitment to the community extends beyond the walls of our clinic," says Brock Romero, APRN-FNP/CEO.
