Sudden Cardiac Arrest & AED’s
Sudden Cardiac Arrest. It strikes without warning affecting not only the residents in our assisted living or skilled nursing facilities—but the staff and the visiting family. Unless defibrillation begins in the first 3-4 minutes, the results could be deadly. Even worse, after 5 minutes, and every minute thereafter, an individual loses 10 percent of their brain function from loss of oxygen. We can prevent the spector of death or crippling disability with a Public Access Defibrillators (AED’s) program. When we start a heart, we save a life! Move the survival rate for SCA events in your facility from 10% to 70%.
Of course, we’re concerned about budgets. Our industry requires easy-to-use, ruggedized, low-cost options. Nurse Rosie’s HeartSine samaritan® PAD 300P http://www.nurserosie.com/equipment/defibrillatorsaed/) meets that challenge. Lightweight, fast-reacting and durable with simple, two-button operation and easy-to-follow voice prompts that guide and calm the user through the life-saving process, the samaritan® covers every detail, from reminding the user to call 911 to placement of electrode pads and CPR instructions. Visual prompts assist hearing-impaired users.
The samaritan® offers the most advanced technology available (SCOPE™ bi-phasic waveform) to assess the individual’s ECG and “impedence”, determine if defibrillation is required, then adjusts the waveform to deliver optimum energy during defibrillation. Life saving, pure and simple.
Forward Hearts: Save a life with Nurse Rosie’s HeartSine 300P and we’ll donate an AED to the organization chosen by the surviving individual.
