“Heart of the Nation is a charitable organisation set up by Original Yellow Wiggle, and sudden cardiac arrest survivor, Greg Page. Fortunately for Greg, he is one of the very small percentage of survivors of sudden cardiac arrest. 9 out of 10 people who experience a sudden cardiac arrest DON’T survive. But Greg did, because he was in the right place at the right time. Heart of the Nation’s goal is to create more “right places at the right time” for more people who experience a sudden cardiac arrest, by ensuring that there is greater access to an AED. An AED is perhaps the most vital link in the chain of survival. In cases where there is an AED available within the first 3 minutes of someone going into sudden cardiac arrest, survival rates can be as high as 72%! Heart of the Nation’s mission is to make AEDs more visible, accessible and actionable in the community. So, once you have purchased an AED from Integrity Health and Safety, be sure to register it with Heart of the Nation so it can be made more visible in the community.
