Defibrillators

Your Parish Council has provided a defibrillator unit in Studley Roger - on the wall of the village hall - and is soon to complete the instalation of a unit in the village of Aldfield - in the old telephone box.

A defibrillator is a device that gives a high energy electric shock to the heart of someone who is in cardiac arrest (having a heart attack). This high energy shock is called defibrillation, and it's an essential part in trying to save the life of someone who’s in cardiac arrest. A defibrillator may also be called a defib, an AED (Automated External Defibrillator) or a PAD (Public Access Defibrillator).

To learn more about defibfrillators and how to use them, please follow this link to the British Heart Foundation website.

The units are in bright yellow cabinets and are easy to spot from the road.

Your Parish Council plans to organise a training session on how to use these life saving units. They ae very simple to use; they tell you - literally - what to do and you cannot make a mistake if you follow the instructions.
