Special to the Beauregard News Acadian Ambulance recently met with Merryville leaders this week to support the community and enhance access to lifesaving emergency medical equipment.

The AED was accepted by Mayor Fred Walker, Police Chief Cindy Brister, and members of the City Council, who expressed their appreciation for Acadian Ambulance’s continued support of rural communities. “Supporting rural communities and helping ensure lifesaving equipment is readily available is an important part of what we do,” Gautreaux said.
