There was a cardiac arrest on a pickelball court in St Catherine. An AED was retrieved from the rec center and the man was shocked and came around. He apparently said it had happened to him before. The paramedic doing our training said he would have loved to have seen that because in all his years he has never seen someone regain consciousness. It's great that we have this AED technology available to us to augment. Everyone should be trained in CPR, it could be a loved one's life you save.
