For SCA Victims, Being Rescue Ready® Means EFFECTIVENESS

Today could be the day the unimaginable happens. Today could be the day you will need to be rescued by an AED. For SCA victims, the effectiveness of an AED is paramount. Powerheart AEDs are built to the highest standards to provide effective, life-saving therapy to SCA victims when they need it most.

For Rescuers, Being Rescue Ready® Means SIMPLICITY

Today could be the day you will be asked to make a rescue. Today could be the day you become a hero. For rescuers, a device that is easy to use is paramount. Powerheart AEDs are specifically designed to be simple to use, so rescuers can deliver effective therapy to an SCA victim with confidence.

For AED Programme Managers, Being Rescue Ready® Means CONFIDENCE

Today could be the day a life is saved. Today could be the day your hard work implementing an AED programme pays off. Powerheart AEDs perform daily self-tests to ensure pads and batteries are connected and functional, and the internal circuitry is ready for a rescue. For AED programme managers, being confident that their programme is completely compliant and fully ready to rescue is paramount. Powerheart AEDs and Rescue Ready Services give programme managers total confidence in their AED programme.
