The Heart Foundation and Heart of the Nation have joined forces to help improve survival rates from out-of-hospital cardiac arrests. This collaboration aims to enhance CPR and automated external defibrillator (AED) access and usage through community and government initiatives.

In New South Wales, interactive community sessions are being held to boost confidence in responding to cardiac arrests before paramedics arrive. The partnership seeks to empower more bystanders to perform CPR and use AEDs, potentially saving many of the more than 9,000 lives lost annually to sudden cardiac death in our state.
