Why are we doing this project?

Maybe you have had this experience:

Someone nearby collapses and is not responding?

What do you do?

Sudden Cardiac Arrest can happen anytime, anyplace to anyone!

Are you prepared?

• If an AED is applied within 2 ·minutes of collapse there is a 90% chance of survival.
• If an AED is applied within 3 minutes there is a 74% chance of survival.
• The chances of surviving a cardiac arrest with no help ... 5%.

In the city of Seattle, Washington, survival rates jumped dramatically combined when a victim had both CPR AND and AED applied within minutes.
