Southeast Alabama Medical Center and the Dothan Regional Airport are teaming up to help ensure that having a safe flight doesn`t end when the plane touches down on the runway. The Medical Center and Dr. James Jones Monday presented the airport with an automatic external difibrillator. The system, which is about the size of a laptop computer, analyzes the heart`s rhythm with the capability to deliver an electric shock to someone who goes into cardiac arrest.
