AUTOMATIC DEFIBRILLATOR

CYC installed an AED (Automatic External Defibrillator) for the club building. An AED is used in rescuing a person who is in cardiac arrest. The device can be used by people of all ages with no previous training. It provides clear instructions and makes all the decisions about the treatment it can deliver. The device is on the wall just inside the main door. Take a CPR/AED first aid course.
