Evergreen Public Access Defibrillation (EPAD) is helping to dramatically increase the survival rate of sudden cardiac arrest victims in our community.

Why CPR / AEDs

Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR)

CPR is an emergency lifesaving procedure performed when the heart stops beating and a person is not breathing. Immediate CPR can double or triple chances of survival after cardiac arrest.

 

Automated External Defibrillator (AED)

CPR is a very important action for saving a patient’s life. However, an AED is crucial towards regaining the natural rhythm of the heartbeat as well as restarting the patient’s heart. After performing CPR and if the patient is still non-responsive an AED should be implemented. If the AED does not bring the patient back to consciousness CPR should be re-administered. It’s crucial to call 911 or any Emergency Medical Service (EMS) before performing CPR or applying an AED.
