Supported by <a href=\"https:\/\/foundation.cooperhealth.org\/\">The Cooper Foundation<\/a>, this initiative provided church leaders and members with hands-on cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) education, equipping them with essential lifesaving skills.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are proud to bring critical lifesaving resources to communities,\u201d said Michael Riley, Director of Resuscitation Education and AHA Training Center coordinator at the Center for Resuscitation Education and Community Engagement. \u201cProviding AEDs along with CPR education empowers people to take action in cardiac emergencies and can truly make a difference in saving lives.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>AEDs are portable, easy-to-use devices that can analyze the heart\u2019s rhythm and deliver an electric shock if needed to restore a normal heartbeat during sudden cardiac arrest. When used quickly and effectively, AEDs can significantly increase survival rates, especially in public settings where immediate medical assistance may not be available.<\/p>\n<p>Cooper\u2019s Center for Resuscitation Education and Community Engagement is dedicated to advancing lifesaving training and increasing access to emergency response tools in communities. Through education, outreach, and AED donations like this one, the Center works to ensure that more individuals and organizations are prepared to respond effectively in a cardiac emergency.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-23555 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.cooperhealth.org\/weeklyrounds\/files\/2025\/03\/CPR-community-engagement-AED-March-2025-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"525\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.cooperhealth.org\/weeklyrounds\/files\/2025\/03\/CPR-community-engagement-AED-March-2025-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.cooperhealth.org\/weeklyrounds\/files\/2025\/03\/CPR-community-engagement-AED-March-2025-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.cooperhealth.org\/weeklyrounds\/files\/2025\/03\/CPR-community-engagement-AED-March-2025-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.cooperhealth.org\/weeklyrounds\/files\/2025\/03\/CPR-community-engagement-AED-March-2025-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blogs.cooperhealth.org\/weeklyrounds\/files\/2025\/03\/CPR-community-engagement-AED-March-2025-1200x900.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/blogs.cooperhealth.org\/weeklyrounds\/files\/2025\/03\/CPR-community-engagement-AED-March-2025.jpg 2016w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cooper University Health Care\u2019s Center for Resuscitation Education and Community Engagement\u00a0recently made its first community donation of an automated external defibrillator (AED), accompanied by training on the system, to the Little Rock Baptist Church in Camden.
