Sudden cardiac arrest is one of the leading causes of death in the United States, claiming 350,000 lives annually. Many area organizations are protecting their employees, students, customers and guests by installing Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) in the workplace. For a one time start-up cost of $1,495-$2,400, these lifesaving devices are now available where people spend most of their waking time – the workplace.
The American Red Cross recognizes the importance of increased access to early defibrillation. We have been working with local companies implementing AED programs since 2001. We are happy to lend you our expertise in order to ensure that your company is prepared to respond in the event of a cardiac emergency.
We can provide one point of contact for a full range of services and information. We are prepared to be your single point of contact for:
- Purchasing an AED unit
- Purchasing AED supplies, accessories, and storage devices
- CPR/AED/First Aid training
- Annual reminders & follow up information
- Training and supplies for disaster response
When you choose to buy an AED or emergency training from the American Red Cross you are not only making an investment toward preventing emergencies in your workplace, your organization is supporting the mission of the American Red Cross and our efforts to prevent emergencies in the local community.
