🚨Community Volunteers Needed🚨for an exciting new @FPSParamedics program called Neighbours saving Neighbours. Want to respond alongside paramedics to cardiac arrest emergencies in your neighbourhood and potentially save a life? https://t.co/h3CshyQQR0
"Volunteer responders can make the difference between life and death for friends, family, and neighbours who experience cardiac arrest. I hope you’ll volunteer to help," said Jason Kervin, Advanced Care Paramedic with Frontenac Paramedics. https://t.co/Ii36ynBCuD
Life saved with an innovative approach to sudden cardiac arrest combining several revolutionary strategies and techniques- community volunteer responders, crowdsourcing apps like GoodSAM and PulsePoint, and an ultraportable AED - CellAED. Let’s implement in more places and study
Humbled to share an incredible story of a young mother whose life was saved thanks to the quick actions of responders and early access to defibrillation with #CellAED. To all the responders who acted quickly—thank you for being the true heroes of this story ❤️
The UK all-party parliamentary group on defibrillators recommends AEDs in every public building, for all new homes, and in police and fire vehicles. https://t.co/4CZLNgnIDJ CellAED, available in the UK, will support implementation of these recommendations. https://t.co/zayZZUXeB6

@Qemerg@dwmessenger@QueensUHealth@queensuResearch@KingstonHSC It is such a privilege to be a part of @Qemerg - the support I receive from clinical colleagues, leadership and the administrative team is so much appreciated. I don’t ever take it for granted but probably don’t say “thank-you” enough. So here it is - thank you!!!!
@ActionFirstAid@QueensUHealth@FrontenacCounty This could not have been done without @ActionFirstAid and @SaveStationAED - they have supported this program from the beginning in many different ways. Thank you for your innovative and collaborative spirit. It’s partnerships like ours that will change the game.
