Council maintained defibrillators (AEDs)

Automated external defibrillators (AEDs) are battery-powered, portable devices for use in emergencies involving cardiac arrest.

Dial triple zero (000) and ask for an ambulance if someone has had a cardiac arrest.

Bega Valley Shire Council is committed to providing both its employees and the greater community with the tools to manage emergency situations.

In the event of a Sudden Cardiac Arrest, Bega Valley Shire Council has a number of AEDs located throughout the community. An AED is an external device that delivers an electrical shock to the heart when an arrhythmia is present, it helps to restore the heart back to a regular rhythm after it has suffered a Sudden Cardiac Arrest. These AED machines walk the user’s through the process step-by-step in the event of an emergency.
