You may not always be in the best location to receive prompt assistance if cardiac problems occur. The PulsePoint Respond app connects you to community members who have received CPR training and are prepared to assist you in the event of a cardiac (or other) emergency. The app utilizes your GPS to alert nearby residents who can respond quickly and put their life-saving skills to use before EMS arrives. Responders are guided by the app. It also provides directions to the nearest automated external defibrillator. Apart from the “CPR required” notification, the app can alert you to other nearby emergencies and events. This can benefit you and your family by keeping you and your family safe and avoiding morning commute traffic.
