A CALL TO ACTION
Sudden cardiac arrest can happen to anyone, at any time, but PulsePoint Respond empowers CPR-trained citizens to help improve patient outcomes and save lives by reducing collapse-to-CPR and collapse-to-defibrillation times. And when citizens are more aware of and engaged with the health of their community, they become better partners with your agency—and a stronger link in your response efforts.
PROXIMITY TO VICTIM
For extremely time-sensitive emergencies like cardiac arrest, notifying community first responders that are in the immediate vicinity of an event, simultaneously with the conventional Fire/EMS response, offers the potential to improve outcomes. By expanding situational awareness beyond the purview of a traditional witnessed arrest radius, the opportunity to instantly draw skilled individuals, including off-duty health care professionals, grows, enabling critical life-sustaining BLS interventions to begin sooner and more often, and potentially of higher quality.

PulsePoint AED is a powerful tool to build, manage, and mobilize an emergency AED registry. Registered AEDs are accessible to emergency call takers and disclosed to those nearby during cardiac arrest events.
Improving situational awareness with PulsePoint can help build safer, stronger, and more resilient communities.
RISK AWARENESS
Public interest alerts allow community members to stay mindful of important incident activity that may be impactful. These informational notifications provide an early and automatic heads-up to local threats such as wildland fires, flooding and utility emergencies. Making the public aware of risks and helping them be prepared is an essential component of community risk reduction.
DAILY USEFULNESS IS KEY TO ENGAGEMENT
Users share the daily usefulness of PulsePoint with neighbors, family, and friends, and in turn, they help build and sustain a dynamic and reliable network of CPR-trained individuals.
