If someone near you became unresponsive, would you know what to do?
An automated external defibrillator (AED), also known as a βdefibβ, can help restart a heart during cardiac arrest. They are only used on someone who is unresponsive and not breathing normally.
Before you use the AED, make sure you:
β
CHECK the person and scene: is the person responsive? Are they breathing normally? Is the area safe for you to help?
π CALL emergency services (Triple Zero - 000): put the phone on speaker and follow their instructions
π CARE β this is where the AED comes in.
The AED tells you exactly what to do with audio cues. You just need to listen, and act.
