Hotels & Hospitality
Hospitality includes providing protection for your guests and hotels are at greater risk.
Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) or massive heart attack as it is sometimes known, which kills more than 33 ,000 Australians every year and usually strikes without warning. Even a seemingly healthy person can suffer a fatal cardiac arrest and for as many as 50% of SCA victims, their first symptom is cardiac arrest. Pre-hospital Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) survival rates are currently less than 5% however early defibrillation within the first few minutes of the arrest can increase this rate to well above 50%.
The only real treatment for Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) is defibrillation - an electric current that shocks the heart so that a normal rhythm may resume. This shock must be delivered within minutes of the arrest to successfully prevent death.
For every minute that passes without defibrillation therapy, the victim’s chance of survival reduces by 10% and waiting for paramedics to arrive can cost crucial minutes.
Australian Defibrillators now has the latest easy-to-use Automatic External Defibrillators (AEDs) solutions where virtually anyone can save a life. Studies have shown that widespread availability of easy-to-use Automated External Defibrillators (AED) and early response can dramatically increase survival rates.
Because Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) rarely displays any warning signs, and affects all ages and levels of fitness, no one is truly 100% safe from this incredible danger.
Due to the average age of your guests, facilities such as hotels, restaurants, etc, have a higher than normal risk factor when it comes to victims of Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA).
However a successful defibrillation program requires a complete solution from the planning to training and web based monitoring to ensure that your defibrillator is fully operational in the event of a sudden cardiac arrest. These programs, often part of a broader risk management initiative and history has proven that Automatic External Defibrillators (AED) save lives.
Managers of hotels and establishments are now adopting Australian Defibrillators programs as a way to help insure the safety of staff, clients and guests in their facilities.
Well-trained staff can respond extremely quickly to cases of Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) and many lives have already been saved by rescuers in these types of facilities.
By implementing an AED program, Australian Defibrillators can provide a complete solution to protect your staff, patrons and guests against this life-threatening condition.
