Early CPR and defibrillation with an AED can significantly increase someone’s chances of surviving a cardiac arrest.💚 For every minute that defibrillation is delayed the persons chance of survival decreases by around 10%. AEDs are compact, portable, easy to use, safe and very effective. They can be used by anyone, whether or not they have had formal training.💚 Yorkshire Ambulance Service supported by YAS Charity, has put together this informative poster guide.
