Many thanks to Ian Watt from the Community Council for all his hard work in researching which one to purchase and for arranging Scott from Logan Electrical Services to install it.  Scott did a very efficient and professional job for us and is highly recommended.

​

We have the Cardiac Science G5 defibrillators which is one of the best available on the market.  It is really intuitive and talks you through what you need to do, so no need for training or to be apprehensive.

​

When you call 999 and the operator thinks you require a defibrillator, they will give you the location and the code to open the box. An ambulance will also be dispatched at this time. Take the orange box and the attached kit. If possible, send someone else to fetch the defibrillator so you can give the patient CPR if required. If you have a minute then please have a look at this video so you can familiarise yourself with how to use it.

 

We hope that it will never need to be used, but we are happy that we have them in our village if anyone needs it.
