Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) are devices that can restore a normal heart rhythm during sudden cardiac arrest. They are designed to be user-friendly, allowing even those without medical training to operate them effectively. At JET Medical Response, we include AED training in our CPR and First Aid courses, ensuring participants understand how to use this lifesaving technology. Knowing how to use an AED can significantly increase the chances of survival for someone experiencing a cardiac event.
Our training covers the importance of early defibrillation and how to recognize when an AED is needed. Participants learn how to assess a victim, apply the AED pads, and follow the device’s prompts. We also discuss the importance of calling emergency services and continuing CPR until help arrives. This comprehensive approach ensures that individuals are well-prepared to act in emergencies.
Furthermore, having AEDs accessible in public spaces can save lives. Organizations that invest in AEDs and train their staff create safer environments for everyone. By participating in our AED training at JET Medical Response, you can help foster a culture of preparedness and safety in your community.
