Automated External Defibrillators (AED’s)

[bosshog]

So I did a full days first course today. I learnt a lot of things, but one of the points I came away with is unless you have a defribrillator handy when you have a heart attack then you don't stand any real chance. Given an ambulance response time is over an hour here in rural Norfolk, I thinking about getting one of these for the house. I've had a look online and they range from £700 to about £1600. Before I buy one, any recommendations?

Is there a first responder scheme in your area? I used to volunteer for ours, a good idea that gets a defib to you within a short time.

yes there is, but at 10% per min less chance of survival , getting to ours within 10mins is slim chance at best
