Why is it a good idea to have an AED at home?

16 octobre 2024

Having an AED at home offers proactive protection for your loved ones in the event of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). Since SCA can occur without warning, and the first few minutes are critical for survival, having an AED at home allows immediate intervention before emergency services arrive. This is particularly important if someone in the household has a history of heart disease or other risk factors for cardiac arrest.
