AED Finder Ireland: Let’s Build a Safer Community Together

(SkillWise – Tech for Community Safety)

Every minute matters during a cardiac arrest. For every minute without CPR and an AED, survival drops by 10%.And yet, most people still don’t know:

❗ Where their nearest AED is❗ If it’s available 24/7❗ How to use one — or that ANYONE can!!

That’s why we’re building Ireland’s most community-driven safety tool:The SkillWise AED Finder. A growing map of publicly accessible AEDs — created together with the people of Ireland.

💛 What is an AED?

An Automated External Defibrillator is a small, smart device that:

• delivers a life-saving shock

• restarts a normal heart rhythm

• gives voice prompts telling you exactly what to do

• is safe, simple, and designed for the general public

• 
  

You cannot hurt someone with an AED.You cannot give a shock by accident.The device analyses the heart and will only shock when necessary.

It is safer than most household appliances, yet it saves lives every single day.

🚫 Common Misconceptions – Cleared Up

❌ “I’m not trained, I can’t use an AED.”

You can.The machine talks to you, step-by-step.

❌ “I could give a shock at the wrong time.”

Impossible — the AED won’t deliver unless medically required.

❌ “It’s only for paramedics.”

No. AEDs were created specifically so ordinary people can act before the ambulance arrives.

❌ “There aren’t many AEDs near me.”

There are — you just don’t know where they are yet. That’s exactly why the AED Finder exists.
