AEDs for your business
When a heart stops, an AED within reach can double or triple the chance of survival. We pay up to $600 toward the cost of putting one in your business, and we train your team to use it.

We split the cost with you
Victor Farmington Ambulance pays approximately half the cost of an AED for local businesses that do not already have one on site. The unit, the pads, the carrying case, and the battery are all part of the split.
A complete setup runs around$1,200, so your share is approximately $600. We train up to six of your employees free in one class, and we come back once a year to check the unit.
