AED: A Heartfelt Addition to Network Services
We are excited to share some important updates that enhance our workplace safety and preparedness at Alamon Network Services.
CPR/AED/First Aid Training Completed
Network Services is proud to announce that our team successfully completed onsite CPR, AED, First Aid, and Bloodborne Pathogen training this summer through HSI. This training equips 16 employees with lifesaving skills to respond effectively in emergency situations, ensuring the safety and well-being of everyone in our department. A big thank you to all who participated for their dedication and commitment to making our workplace safer!
New AED Installed in the Office
In addition to the training, a new HeartSine 350P Automated External Defibrillator (AED) was purchased for Network Services. The AED is located inside Suite 360 at the Carrollton Warehouse and easily accessible in case of an emergency. With the purchase of this AED, one year of complete medical oversight and direction is being provided by AED Total Solution. This subscription includes certified physician oversight and prescription, maintenance checks and record keeping, CPR/AED training certification tracking, local and regional AED registration, and many more services.
Why This Matters
- Enhanced Safety: With trained personnel and an AED on-site, we are better prepared to handle cardiac emergencies.
- Quick Response: Immediate access to an AED can make a critical difference in the outcome of a cardiac event.
- Peace of Mind: Knowing that we have the tools and training to respond to emergencies helps create a safer and more secure work environment for everyone.
Important Statistics
- Survival Rates: 9 out of 10 cardiac arrest victims who receive a shock from an AED within the first minute survive.
- Time Sensitivity: The chance of survival decreases by 10% every minute without CPR or defibrillation.
- Workplace Impact: With 10,000 cardiac arrests occurring in the workplace annually, having an AED on-site can double or even triple survival rates.
We encourage everyone to familiarize themselves with the location of the AED when visiting Suite 360 in Carrollton, TX. Let’s continue to prioritize safety here at Alamon and train for tomorrow.
