[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] Damyang-gun, Jeonnam announced that starting from the 24th, it will conduct training on emergency response procedures and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) for about 500 people at 45 senior centers equipped with automated external defibrillators (AEDs).


This training will be conducted through theoretical education and practical exercises using mannequins for CPR and AED usage to ensure prompt response during emergencies such as cardiac arrest that can occur anytime in daily life.


The automated external defibrillator (AED) provides voice guidance once activated, making it easy for anyone to use.


In emergencies like cardiac arrest, it helps restore heart function through electric shocks, increasing the patient's survival rate when used quickly before the arrival of the 119 emergency medical team.


In particular, 166 AEDs have been installed in all public institutions and multi-use facilities throughout the county to secure the golden time during emergencies.



A county official stated, “We will continue to provide CPR training for residents to enable quick response to emergencies such as acute cardiac arrest that can occur anytime and anywhere, and we plan to expand the installation of AEDs in senior centers and other locations.”
