Community Public Access Defibrillator

13 February 2023

WTJ now have a Community Public Access Defibrillator on the wall outside our office that is available to members of the public, 24 hours a day, to use in the case of a life threatening emergency.

A victim’s chance of survival falls by around 7 to 10 percent with every minute that defibrillation is delayed. When a heart stops beating, oxygen is not being transported to the brain and other vital organs, and within four to five minutes, brain damage will start to occur without intervention.

 

We hope that the availability of an accessible defibrillator will be a benefit to the local community.
