Defibrillation within 3 minutes lifts the chance of survival from sudden cardiac arrest to 70 per cent.
The Greenwich Chapter of the American Red Cross is committed to emergency preparedness. We want all individuals, businesses and families to be prepared, trained and ready. Purchase an AED today and be part of the chain of survival. We have selected to market the Powerheart AED G3 Plus by Cardiac Science because it is reliable and easy to use. In an emergency situation it offers clear voice prompts plus text screen to guide you through a stressful rescue situation. The device is fully automatic and customizes the energy level delivered to each patient. It is Rescue Ready and you will be too. The Red Cross offers this AED at a discount. The unit costs $1,700, and we include instruction at your home or facility.
"Our family purchased an Automated External Defibrillator after watching a friend succumb to a heart attack during an event we attended in a private home. Because we frequently host large gatherings in our home, it gives us great peace of mind to know that we have an easy to use, yet essential to survival, piece of equipment immediately available. Our entire family has been trained in CPR and on the AED in our home and we hope others will consider obtaining one as well,” says Susan Bevan Daddino, Greenwich Resident.
We want you and your staff or family to feel similarly empowered and prepared to know how to respond to an arrest situation. This lifesaving device is a must wherever people congregate.
