To be honest, you don’t need to know. You won’t be given access to the AED unless you join the team and are trained.

CALL 911 FIRST! Not your neighbors.

911 will notify the neighborhood responders.

Our neighborhood has four AEDs. We have had only one cardiac arrest and the FD actually got there first. We live just a mile from the FD, but they may be off on another call, so we need the AED program. It’s cheap insurance.
