Heart180 was established by Guy Leech to give people the best chance of surviving a cardiac arrest after we lost a very close friend Charles Stewart who went into a coma after having a cardiac arrest on Manly Beach.
The average age of Australian Trades, Engineers, Service Technicians and Lift Trades that are working on site or in lift shafts etc is increasing and as we get older the risk of having a cardiac arrest increases dramatically - that is why we all need to have life saving devices close at hand.
- If you are working in a remote location, on the road, on the roof of a high rise building or in a lift shaft it is essential that you have fast access to a Defibrillator.
- Gives you up to a 90% chance of surviving a sudden cardiac arrest.
- A Cardiac Arrest is when you have an electrical issue with your heart - without a defib you cant survive.
- If you have a cardiac arrest the first 180 Seconds are critical.
The #HeartStarterInitiative is committed to ensuring all Australian Trades, Engineers, Project Managers and team members have access to a Defibrillator in the Office, Workshop, Plant and when Onsite. #Defibrillators #JohnHuntRecruitment #WorkplaceSafety
