National Central Register of Defibrillators
The Irish Red Cross estimates there are between 8,000 and 10,000 publicly accessible defibrillators in Ireland but the emergency services may only know approximately 25% of these locations.
✅What we need in the country is a national central register of all available defibrillators
✅We must include and expand the terrific Community First Responders
✅We need to fund this community organisation so it can provide training within their communities and so these community-based groups can ensure AEDs in their areas are working and particularly that batteries and pads are in working order.
