AED’s on Campus

The Office of Risk Management has recently partnered with the Office of Human Resources and we are excited to announce the purchase of 32 Automated External Defibrillators (AED).  An (AED) is a portable electronic device that automatically diagnoses potentially life threatening cardiac arrhythmias.  By using simple audio and visual commands, AEDs are designed to be simple to use for the layman.   These AED’s will be installed throughout campus at selected locations.  Training of selected faculty and staff is in progress.  If you or your department would like to become AED, CPR and First Aid certified, please contact the Office of Risk Management (x2363) or rickey.brown@acu.edu for scheduling.
