In Canada someone experiences a cardiac arrest every thirteen minutes. Early recognition, CPR and use of an AED can increase the odds of survival by 75 per cent or more. The Save A Life app from St. John Ambulance-Alberta Council is supported by the AEDMAP database, wherein Canadian organizations with an AED can register their device. In the event of an emergency, general public or Emergency Services can utilize the application to locate the nearest AED, saving precious seconds.
Save A Life’s core focus is centered on improving the odds of survival of those in an emergency by locating the closest AED.
AED registry is populated in two ways:
Company self registration of their own AED’s
Crowd sourced by allowing the public to report the location of defibrillators
