Life Saving Devices Available in Austin Communities
Austin Volunteer Fire Department
As part of an on-going fire and EMS safety program with the Austin Volunteer Fire Company, department members Kathy Brooks and Andy Bothell have co-chaired the program to obtain funds to purchase three automated external defibrillators (AED) for placement in the Austin community.
Brooks stated “when a cardiac arrest occurs, the heart stops abruptly with little or no warning.” Early recognition of cardiac arrest improves the person’s chance of survival and is key to starting the correct core of CPR and the appropriate use of the AED to restart the heart. CPR can help keep the heart pumping and blood flowing to vital organs until an electrical shock from an AED is available to restore the heart to a normal heart rhythm.
Bothell noted “many times cardiac arrests happen in public places and it is important to remember that as a bystander everyone’s actions can help.” Witnessing and responding to a cardiac arrest can be a very traumatic event. Having the right equipment available is much more reassuring to your community members in the event of an emergency. With today’s technology, an AED is very easy to use; anyone can operate it under any circumstance.
AED’s are intended for use by the general public—with or without specialized training.
