Cardiac arrest awareness month discount
October is Sudden Cardiac Arrest Awareness Month. For most organizations it passes by unnoticed, until the day someone collapses in the office, the warehouse or the lobby. Then the only question that matters is how fast help arrives.
At AED Leader, our mission is to make every workplace ready to respond. This month we want more people to know what sudden cardiac arrest is, why an AED on site makes the difference, and what your team needs to use it with confidence.
Every October, organizations across the US come together to raise awareness of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). The goal is simple: more people who recognize it, more people who know CPR, and more AEDs within reach.
That matters, because more than 350,000 people in the US suffer a cardiac arrest outside a hospital every year. Thousands of those happen at work. Fewer than 1 in 10 survive.
The two are often confused, but they are not the same:
Without help, SCA is fatal within minutes. Every minute without CPR and defibrillation lowers the chance of survival by roughly 10%. Emergency services often need 8 to 12 minutes to arrive. What your coworkers do in those first minutes decides the outcome, and only an AED can restore a normal heart rhythm.
Many organizations don’t realize that an AED alone isn’t always enough. In a real emergency, small things slow you down:
The First Responder Kit holds what you need for those moments: gloves, shears, a razor, wipes and a CPR mask. Store it with your AED, so your team never has to search for anything when every second counts. That’s why we chose this offer: an AED is the most important step, and the kit makes sure nothing stops your team from using it.
Awareness doesn’t end after one month. In our podcast When Minutes Matter, we talk with survivors, bystanders, coaches and coworkers about the moment an emergency struck and someone chose to act. Each episode shows what it takes to stay calm and step up, and how anyone, not just professionals, can be ready.
