Well, my instructor gave me a scary stat......A heart attack with only CPR gives you a 10-15 percent chance of a meaningful recovery as you lose heart muscle every minute treatment is delayed..

With an AED available, that rises to 80 %......

Can someone check these stats ???

Regardless, I encourage all Councils to fund one for all their eVANt's...which means we will have a few at the Natz smile

PS. the training and certification , only cost 15.00 extra when taken in conjunction with the Standard First Aid, and "A" CPR courses....

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, a 60% BETTER chance that your Friend or Spouse will be BE by your side at the next Truckin with an AED on the grounds During a Heart Event is a small investment, with a LARGE Return.

I'll Put my name on the LIST for $100, after March.

Doc have you checked into this? I would think this would work better as each eVANt could rent their own unit and then there wouldnt be the which eVANt is it going to problem...

I have asked my Council, the Ontario Federation of Vanner's, to bring this to the agenda @ the CoC in February.....

As a volunteer firefighter and EMT, I love the idea of having an AED available at any gathering of folks. Better yet, though, would be to have a measurable percentage of the membership have their basic 1st aid and CPR training. It's inexpensive to get and generally requires about a weekend to go through the classes. AED's are pretty foolproof (in EMS we call them firefighter-proof)and it would be best to rent rather than buy if possible as the batteries are REALLY expensive. Of course, inviting your local volunteer fire department out to an event can't hurt either. Remember, my "other" van has lights and siren!

Well Geoff " Garfvanner " did raise this at the CoC on the weekend....If everyone looks at Snotty's link it contains good information.......

It also shows why more than one at an eVANt would be helpful.....

So Rent, or buy, I think we would all like to see all the Council's consider this....a good investment if one is at every eVANt

As far as training goes, when I did my CPR training, it was only an extra 20.00 for the AED add on.........
