Why is it a good idea to have an AED in schools?

Why is it a good idea to have an AED in schools?

Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) can affect anyone, including children, which makes it essential for schools to have AEDs readily available. Athletic activities, unexpected health conditions, and the large number of people present in schools increase the likelihood of an SCA occurring. Immediate defibrillation within the first few minutes can significantly improve survival chances. Every minute without intervention reduces the chance of survival by 7-10%, so having an AED in schools ensures that life-saving treatment can be provided while waiting for emergency services.
