NB Heart and Stroke Foundation
Restart A Life - AED Awareness Program
Brundage Point River centre
Sunday, May 9, 2010
2:00 pm – 3:00pm
The New
Brunswick Heart and Stroke
Foundation, in cooperation with the Town of Grand Bay-Westfield’s
Tourism
Committee, will be holding a Restart-A-Life / AED Awareness
Presentation and
Demonstration at the Brundage Point River Center, 4 Ferry Road,
Grand
Bay-Westfield on Sunday, May 9, 2010 from 2:00 pm to 3:00 pm. The goal
of the
Restart-A-Heart, Restart-A-Life initiative is to improve the survival
rate of
sudden cardiac arrests by placing more Automated External
Defibrillators (AEDs)
in public buildings and to provide proper public training. Research
shows AEDs,
when used with CPR, can improve cardiac arrest survival rates from 5
percent to
over 50 percent if delivered in the first few minutes. Come on out and
see how
easy an AED is to use and how important these life saving devices are
in your
community. Two CPR Anytime Kits will be available as door prizes so
don’t
forget to fill out you ballot on the way in.
Please register by 12 noon;
