Pulse Point is used to dispatch each Village responders. It shows a map of the cardiac arrest location and where the closest AED unit is located. All responders are notified within a half mile from the arrest. In Newell all responders will go directly to the home to start CPR while other responders will gather the AED system. Our goal is to be at the arrest site within 3 minutes. Villages response time was 5 1/2 minutes last year but the response time to southern new Villages maybe longer than that.

Thanks for your reply. I wasn't clear enough. In the Pulse Point field to "Add Agency" only 'Sumter Fire and EMS' is available. Nothing shows for Lake or Marion Fire and EMS as a choice. I'm not a trained volunteer or responder, so I don't see a way to view incidents in the other two counties. Similar to the scanner info I used to get before encryption. I was inquiring about getting incident info in the other two TV counties, not response time. And thank you for volunteering!
