About Us
Empowering communities to save lives.
AED Rescue Connect is a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving survival rates from sudden cardiac arrest through public access defibrillation, training, and community partnerships.
We believe that every person should have access to the tools and training needed to respond in a cardiac emergency. Our organization was founded on the simple belief that prepared communities save lives.
- Building a community of Life-Savers
- Thosuands trained in CPR and AED use
- Partnering with schools, small businesses, and nonprofits
Every AED installed represents another life saved — and every person trained becomes a rescuer.
Why?
We believe that every second counts in the fight against cardiac arrest.
AED Rescue Connect is a dedicated network of Automatic External Defibrillators (AEDs) designed to bridge the gap between those in need of immediate cardiac care and life-saving equipment. Our goal is to empower communities and individuals by:
Building a strong network of AED locations: We work with businesses, organizations, and individuals to strategically place AEDs, ensuring they are easily discoverable during emergencies.
Raising awareness about the importance of AED accessibility: We educate the public on cardiopulmaonary resuscitation (CPR) and the critical role of AEDs in saving lives and encourage the placement of these devices in high-traffic areas.
Connecting bystanders who witness cardiac arrest with nearby AED locations: We log all of our AEDs on a public database called Pulse Point.
