Defibrillator Supply and Installation Melbourne
An automatic external defibrillator (AED) is a crucial medical device used to save lives in cases of sudden cardiac arrest. At NKM, we understand the significance of this life-saving tool and offer comprehensive services for the supply and installation of defibrillators in various workplaces and public settings.
AEDs work by scanning the heart to determine whether a shock is needed and, if necessary, they deliver a shock automatically to help the heart return to its normal rhythm. In a medical emergency like sudden cardiac arrest, every minute counts, making it imperative for workplaces and public areas to have accessible and well-maintained defibrillators.
At NKM, our experienced technicians are available to assist you with the supply and installation of AEDs in your workplace or public space.
Our services include:
- Choosing a location – it is essential that you choose a visual location and one that is easily accessible. Clear signage also needs to be provided
- Setting the AED up – Defibrillators are not immediately activated and ready for use when first purchased. Our technicians will guide you through the process needed for activation.
- Staff training – is vital to ensure that your employees are aware that the AED is available in your workplace and also these employees should be given a demonstration on how it is used. NKM has skilled trainers to assist you to do this.
- Maintenance – Routine maintenance is required to keep the AED in proper working order. Defibrillator pads must be replaced once used. Pads and batteries have an expiry date, batteries can run out, and this is why it is essential to have them checked regularly.
These days defibrillators can be found in many locations, ie supermarkets, sports facilities, schools, offices and more and because they are such life saving tools they need to be serviced regularly.
