Farm & Industrial

If you own a farm or industrial plant and are prepared for any number of calamities from floods to fires, you've likely considered the need for an automatic external defibrillator (AED) system to keep your team safe from sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). These industries are considered high risk for SCA due to the strenuous and laborious work that occurs within them. This means that your crew is at risk for heart failure if they don't have access to a device like an AED to use in conjunction with cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in the event of an emergency. 

AEDs In Agriculture

As a farmer, you know how physically demanding the work is. All around you your crew is lifting, hauling, digging and moving. As the sun beats down on their bodies, they dig in deeper and persist through exhaustion. Suddenly, one of your crew members is unresponsive, your worksite is a significant distance from the nearest emergency services location and you need to act fast. You know they may be suffering from cardiac arrest due to the following symptoms:

1. Sudden collapse;
2. Irregular breathing or not breathing; and
3. pulse.

 Thankfully, you've taken the necessary steps to increase safety on your farm. 

You've purchased the AED Advantage Farm & Industrial Kit and have placed one in each vehicle and throughout the farm. Everyone knows where it is and what to do in case of an emergency. If a situation arises where someone needs to use an AED, it's easily accessible and will increase the chances of survival from SCA by providing extra time until an advanced medical crew arrives.

AEDs In Industrial Plants And Facilities

Industrial plants and facilities are unique in their own way as they require a different approach to AED implementation. In many of these facilities, workers are active throughout the day. This means that there is a higher risk of sudden cardiac arrest induced by unstable heart rhythms. 

Heavy machinery adds to the risk factor for traumatic cardiac arrests and a safety plan is needed for all employees so they can effectively react to any emergencies that may occur. As an employer, is your duty to provide your workplace with the following:

1. Establish an emergency plan within your facilities;
2. Choose AEDs that are suitable for industrial applications;
3. Adequately train staff on the use of AEDs; and
4. Roll out a communication plan to ensure safety measures are followed.

AEDs are important pieces of industrial safety equipment and they help to save lives when used properly. The effective distribution of these devices throughout plant facilities will help to ensure that every worker has a higher chance of survival in the event of a cardiac emergency.
