Workplace defibrillators:

Which is right for your business?

The team here at First Aid Accident & Emergency strongly encourages all workplaces across Australia to seriously consider purchasing a portable defibrillator to have kept onsite. When a defib is used throughout resuscitation, survival rates are significantly increased compared to when only using CPR—this is why defibrillators are such essential devices to have kept at your workplace.

Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) isn’t something that only happens to individuals with prior diagnosed heart conditions—anyone of any age and health level can experience a cardiac arrest. Have a read of our summary below as we take a look at some of the best workplace defibrillators and defibrillator packs.

Construction Defibrillator Bundle HeartSine 360 Tough Case

This defibrillator pack is an ideal option for any industry—but because of its rugged and handy travel case, it’s a particularly good fit for those who work in outdoor environments such as construction workers and tradies.

This defib pack includes a state-of-the-art HeartSine 360 Defibrillator which is lightweight and compact. The defibrillator is extremely easy to use, providing the rescuer with clear step-by-step instructions on exactly what to do. This means that anyone can use the defib in an emergency, even those who have never received prior training.

The HeartSine 360 Defibrillator has an IP rating of 56—so it’s highly durable and can withstand conditions like wet weather, wind and dirt. Other essential items that come included within this defib pack are a patient prep kit, soft shell carry case, training video and AED procedure charts.

Defibrillator Lifepak CR2 Bundle Pack with Cabinet

Another top defibrillator choice for workplaces across Australia is the Lifepak CR2 Bundle Pack. This defib pack is great for a wide range of workplaces in different types of industries, but it is particularly well suited to corporate environments and office spaces. This is due to the metal alarmed wall cabinet that makes storage easy and provides employees with quick access to the defib in the event of an emergency.

The Lifepak CR2 Defibrillator that’s included in this pack is another AED option that’s simple to use, providing easy-to-follow graphics and clear instructions. This defib offers CPR training and a metronome sound that further helps the rescuer. Along with the metal storage cabinet, the pack also includes a patient prep kit, a “how to use an AED” sign, soft shell carry case and a training video.
