Why are AEDs being placed on GOVA buses?

Sudden cardiac arrest can happen to anyone, anywhere at any time. When a cardiac arrest occurs, every minute matters. Having an automated external defibrillator (AED) readily available can help provide potentially life-saving care while emergency medical services are on the way.

Placing AEDs on GOVA buses ensures that life-saving technology is readily accessible in locations where people live, work and travel throughout Greater Sudbury.
