Guidance from the Dept. of Education includes issues for schools consideration
A defibrillator is a machine used to give an electric shock to restart a patient's heart when they are in cardiac arrest.
Government should legislate to make defibrillators compulsory in all schools.
All schools should have sufficient defibrillators in prominent positions such that any person suffering a cardiac arrest can be reached within 3 minutes from the defibrillator location.
