Following the specified standards of @JsyAmbulance we have recently commissioned defibrillators at our Handois and Augrès Water Treatment Works, Head Office at Mulcaster House and the Queen’s Valley top car park. Millbrook and Val de la Mare Reservoir to follow.

A cardiac arrest and a heart attack are not the same thing.
💔Cardiac arrest - sudden collapse, no breathing or pulse, requires CPR & possibly AED
❤️🔥Heart attack - usually conscious, may complain of chest pain/tightness
