Automated External Defibrillator (AED)

Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) is a major cause of death in the United States, killing more than 350,000 people each year. About 60% of people who suffer from SCA do not get medical help until paramedics arrive. For every minute that passes without treatment, a person's chance of survival decreases by 10%.

Having an AED in your place of worship, business, or organization can help save lives by allowing trained bystanders to provide help before emergency responders arrive.

Narcan

Having both Narcan (naloxone) and an AED on hand is a valuable step in promoting safety. Narcan can reverse the effects of an opioid overdose, while an AED can provide critical support during cardiac arrest.

Having an AED and Narcan available can:

• Improve sudden cardiac arrest survival rates.
• Reverse the immediate effects of an opioid overdose.
• Increase workplace and community safety.
• Provide peace of mind to employees, customers, visitors, and community members.
