CardiAngel
in Nursing Homes & Assisted Living
Nursing homes and assisted living facilities care for elderly residents who often have multiple chronic health conditions. Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) can occur unexpectedly, and quick access to an automated external defibrillator (AED) can be lifesaving. Ensuring AED availability on-site empowers staff to respond immediately, improving survival rates and resident safety.

Why AEDs Are Essential in Nursing Homes & Assisted Living?
-
Higher Risk Population: Elderly residents are at increased risk of cardiac events due to age and pre-existing conditions.
-
Extended Care Settings: Residents spend most of their time on-site, making onsite emergency response crucial.
-
Limited Onsite Medical Staff: Immediate medical intervention may not always be available; AEDs enable timely response by trained caregivers.
-
Regulatory Recommendations: Many health authorities encourage or mandate AED presence in eldercare facilities.
-
Enhances Peace of Mind for Families and Staff: Visible AEDs demonstrate commitment to resident health and safety.
