At 2am in the morning I have never witnessed anyone answering phone call, getting dressed, driving, finding the house in the dark, entering if the door is unlocked, in less than 9 minutes.

Have witnessed many calls that Rescue was already in the residence before the neighborhood. AED walked in the door. Once a volunteer AED entered at the same time as Rescue, because they lived 4 doors down, and knew the house.

However, one thing to understand if CPR is not started immediately by someone living in the home, that nine minutes of damage, most likely will be irreversible.

Well said, and I would add that having to ask for volunteers repeatedly on our community page is hard to see when you don’t really support such a cause. At my age, I’m ok with waiting for the EMS cause I’m on the back nine anyhow. Lastly, if you give to this cause make sure when the next county EMS levy is proposed that you fully support that to. The whole concept reminds me of the community watch days…..where are they now?
