Make your community safer with a public access defibrillator
A defibrillator, if made publicly available, can one day save a life
Our campaign aims to help communities get access to defibrillators at an affordable price so more of these life-saving devices can be installed in key public areas. We are putting saving lives before profits by contributing to the cause. We have lowered prices and created special packages for indoor and outdoor use exclusively for communities, parish and town councils.
30,000 people a year
Suffer from cardiac arrest outside of hospital
Only 1 in 10 survive
According to the British Heart Foundation
Why should my community consider a defibrillator?
The above statistic is a shocking one, but it’s not surprising. Many factors contribute to this alarming issue including:
- Lack of publicly available defibrillators
- The general public’s lack of knowledge in what to do in such a situation
- Ambulance response times
This is especially the case for communities that are out of reach of immediate emergency care such as rural areas.
Defibrillators are key to the chain of survival if someone falls victim to cardiac arrest. These life-saving devices are essentially a reset button for the heart.
The electrical shock is administered as part of the chain of survival in conjunction with CPR in order to get the heart beating back to its normal rhythm.
However all of this needs to be done quickly in order to give the victim the best chance of survival.
It’s important to act quick
Currently ambulance services, on average nationally, are struggling to respond to “Red 1” emergencies below 8 minutes.
When a victim suffers from cardiac arrest, their chances of survival diminishes by 10% with every passing minute.
Therefore it’s vital that the victim receives CPR and early defibrillation within a few minutes to stand the best chance of survival.
