About this Event
Host Organization: Environmental Health & Safety
Carleton recently installed 8 AEDs across campus as part of the Ottawa Paramedic Service Public Access Defibrillator Program!
Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) are a life saving device but there are some misconceptions about their use.
The Ottawa Paramedic Service will explain how AEDs work, why they are important, clear up some common misconceptions, and outline the 4 key components that, when accomplished, increase the likelihood of a successful outcome.
Participants will also have the opportunity for hands-on time with an AED.
No need to bring your lunch! Pizza will be served.
