Do you know… where to find an AED on Seabrook Island?
Sudden cardiac arrest can happen to anyone, at any time, and is among the leading causes of death in the United States. According to the American Heart Association, an AED, or automated external defibrillator, is used to help those experiencing sudden cardiac arrest. It’s a sophisticated, yet easy-to-use, medical device that can analyze the heart’s rhythm and, if necessary, deliver an electrical shock, or defibrillation, to help the heart re-establish an effective rhythm. AEDs provide voice instructions and visual prompts to the bystander who is providing aid.
Whether at home or out enjoying an activity on the island, if a cardiac arrest occurs, call 9-1-1 first. Every emergency vehicle is equipped with an AED and it is likely that they will arrive before you locate an available AED.
