According to the British Heart Foundation, there are more than 30,000 out-of-hospital sudden cardiac arrests in the UK each year. Unfortunately, the survival rate is very low, with just 1 in 10 people surviving to discharge from the hospital.
This shows the importance of having easy access to an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) in public spaces. At Concept Hygiene, we’re passionate about extending the national defibrillator network by providing more public access defibrillators to businesses and buildings all over the UK.
How much do defibrillators cost, though? Let’s look into it and why you should consider our defibrillator installation services.
Public access defibrillators can help in the event of a cardiac arrest
There are many different models of defibrillators on the market, all at varying prices, so there are plenty of decisions for a business to make.
At Concept Hygiene, we’ve made the process as easy as possible and offer a few options to suit all needs and budgets.
We exclusively supply user-friendly ZOLL defibrillators, which can detect unusual and normal heart rhythms and provide real-time CPR feedback to help the user treat the person suffering from a sudden cardiac arrest.
Less than one in five people receive the time-sensitive treatment required to save their life when suffering an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Therefore, you need to be able to rely on a defibrillator to be in working order and available, should you ever need to use it. This is why we offer serviced maintenance plans without the initial upfront cost of the unit.
