AED Defibrillators
(Automatic External Defibrillator)

An Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is a life-saving device designed to treat sudden cardiac arrest by delivering a controlled electric shock to restore a normal heart rhythm. Easy to use and portable, AED Defibrillators are essential in public spaces, workplaces, and homes, providing quick intervention before emergency medical services arrive. Whether you're a business owner or a concerned individual, having an AED on-site can significantly increase survival rates. 

How Does an AED Work?
  • ​Step 1: Apply AED Pads – Place the adhesive electrode pads firmly on the victim’s bare chest as shown on the AED diagram.

  • Step 2: Analyse Heart Rhythm – Let the AED automatically assess the heart’s electrical activity to detect any life-threatening arrhythmias.

  • Step 3: Clear the Victim – Ensure no one is touching the victim to avoid interference before the AED delivers a shock.

  • Step 4: Press the Shock Button – If advised, press the flashing shock button to deliver an electric shock that can restart the heart.

​

  • Easy-to-Use AED Instructions – Follow clear voice prompts and visuals provided by the AED for fast, effective response.

  • Increase Survival Rates – Using an AED within minutes of cardiac arrest can double or triple a person's chance of survival.

  • Essential for Public Safety – AEDs should be accessible in schools, gyms, offices, airports, and other public places.

  • Learn How to Use an AED Today – Get CPR/AED certified and be ready to save a life in an emergency.

Do I Need An AED Defibrillator?

Whether you need an AED depends on your environment and risk factors, but here are key reasons why you might strongly consider having one:

​

     You Should Consider AED Defibrillators If:

  • You manage or work in a high-traffic area (schools, gyms, offices, warehouses, airports, churches, etc)

  • You care for someone at higher risk of sudden cardiac arrest, such as someone with heart disease or a known cardiac condition.

  • You live in a remote area where emergency medical services may take longer to arrive.

  • You want to be prepared for emergencies at home, especially if you're a caregiver, coach, or community leader.

  • Your workplace or local laws require it (some regions legally mandate AEDs in certain buildings or businesses). 

     Why It's Important:

  • Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) can happen to anyone, anytime, and survival rates drop 7–10% every minute without defibrillation.

  • AEDs are safe and easy to use, even for untrained bystanders, with voice prompts guiding each step.

  • Having an AED can be the difference between life and death before paramedics arrive.

  • Would you like help choosing a model or knowing what features to look for in an AED?

Do I Need Training?

Technically, you do not need formal training to use AED Defibrillators—they are designed to be simple and intuitive, with voice prompts and visual instructions to guide even untrained users through the process.

However, training is highly recommended for these reasons:

​

Why Training Helps:

  • Faster response: You'll know exactly what to do in a high-stress situation.

  • Confidence: Reduces hesitation or fear of using the device incorrectly.

  • CPR skills included: Most AED Defibrillators training is combined with CPR, which is vital for increasing survival chances.

  • Legal protection: Some Good Samaritan laws may offer additional protection for trained responders.

  • Workplace compliance: In some professions or regions, AED/CPR certification is required.​
