HeartSafe® encourages defibrillators to be placed externally in weatherproof cabinets to allow for a greater number of people to gain access to an AED should a SCA occur. 24-hour access therefore can be given by the Ambulance Control Centre to collect the AED in an emergency.
However, in office buildings, shops, Schools and premises that have limited opening hours and whose perimeters are secure at the end of a working day, a less expensive but equally effective option is to deploy a HeartSafe® Grab Hook Package.
