AEDs (Automated External Defibrillator)
Sudden cardiac arrest occurs when the heart suddenly and unexpectedly stops pumping blood. It can happen to anyone, at any time, and signs include sudden collapse and immediate loss of consciousness. If cardiac arrest does occur, rapid treatment with a medical device called an automated external defibrillator (AED) can be lifesaving. There are several AEDs in public places around Henry County. Find AEDs in Henry County at aedviewer.pulsepoint.org or use the interactive map.
