First aid does not include Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs). However, many employers consider providing them in the workplace given their life-saving capabilities. First responders take around 8-12 minutes to arrive once 911 is called. The more you delay defibrillation in a cardiac arrest, the lesser your chances of survival are. Therefore, having CPR & AED trained employees is more than essential for workplaces.
