Yes they are used and their are over 400 of them in the Villages. You can contact Lieutenant Longacre at the fire department he oversees the AED program and can provide those numbers for you.

Or better yet the fire department is having an open house on August 2nd at station 44 on 3035 Morse blvd. I believe 1-4.
