Defibrillators
Did you know there are three defibrillators located within our community?
Automated External Defibrillators are designed for use by untrained or briefly trained laypersons. AEDs contain technology for analysis of heart rhythms. As a result, it does not require a trained health provider to determine whether or not a rhythm is shockable.
By making these units publicly available, AEDs have improved outcomes for sudden out-of-hospital cardiac arrests.
Defibrillators in the community will be able to provide a vital resource for gaining those extra vital minutes when dealing with a heart related emergency.
