How To Use an AED (Automated External Defibrillator)
This How To Use an AED YouTube video offers a 3D view of what happens inside the human body when an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is activated. The video also demonstrates how to properly use an AED device. Most modern AEDs now provide audio prompts and instruction to guide any user on proper lead placement and operation.
Did you know that Del Webb Lakewood Ranch CERT regularly conducts workshops on How to Use an AED as well as teaching basic life safety skills like CPR and abdominal thrusts for choking? These are not certification courses, but they will impart skills that may help you to help someone experiencing a medical emergency.
