Business Mudgee is launching a new initiative supporting the health of all residents, not just business people, across the Mid-Western Regional Council area. The Heart of Cudgegong – Defib Project will promote the location and installation of Defibrillators or Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) in all communities including Rylstone, Kandos, Mudgee and outlying villages.
“We have been inspired by the great work of the Gulgong community to provide easy, 24hr access to defib devices for residents of that town. We would like to roll out a similar initiative right across our Council area”, Ali Broinowski President of Business Mudgee said today. “We understand that the use of an AED within the first three minutes of a cardiac arrest has shown to improve lifesaving outcomes of patients from 10% up to 70%. (Sourceª) It would be amazing if we could support these sorts of outcomes for anyone suffering a cardiac arrest in our region.”
