The company extends its gratitude to AED Donate for their collaboration in bringing this project to fruition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember5198\">Rachel Richards, head of Operations at AED Donate, says: \u201cSudden cardiac arrest can happen to anyone, at any age, at any time \u2013 and access to this equipment can provide immediate care when every second counts. Community defibrillators are easy to use, provide simple instructions, and are designed for any layperson to operate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember5199\">\u201cIn order to achieve the best possible outcome from a sudden cardiac arrest, it is crucial to recognise the signs, call 999, and start CPR. With access to a defibrillator, we can make a difference.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember5200\">A defibrillator works by delivering a controlled electric shock to the heart, which helps to reset the heart&#8217;s electrical system and allows it to regain a normal rhythm. The defibrillators installed at Access Bookings are available 24\/7 and are registered on The Circuit, meaning the ambulance service can deploy the machines without delay in a life-threatening emergency.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Access Bookings, a leading provider of travel management solutions for the media sector, is proud to announce the installation of a state-of-the-art defibrillator at its office in Lichfield.
