We provide education, training, biomedical support services, medical oversight and CQI, services for the Public Access Defibrillation Programs that are administrated by the Cardiac Safe Community Program. These Public Access Defibrillators are located in community recreation centres, industrial sites, senior's centres, shopping centres and many other locations.

Part of their responsibilities includes notifying our program when a defibrillator has been deployed.
