Heart Safe Plymouth

Norm Okerstrom and Russ Carlson will give a presentation with a brief AED demonstration (automated external defibrillator)

The Rotary Club of Plymouth has partnered with Allina Hospitals and Clinics to begin a new signature project called Heart Safe Plymouth. The goal is to make the community a safer place to live, work, and play in Plymouth, Minnesota. The core of the program involves the following:

  • Educate and train on the emergency treatment of Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) by providing CPR and automated external defibrillator (AED) training to individuals and organizations in the community.
  • Encourage and assist with the acquisition of AEDs so the community has more of them readily available if needed.
  • Get AEDs in the community listed on the National AED Registry so their location is available to 911 operators.
