Some of the most frightening moments in life can cause the most panicked reactions. Imagine yourself in a situation where the heart of a loved one has stopped beating, their air intake minimizes, their consciousness is fading. How would you react? You have never taken a CPR class, the only memories you have of situations like these take you back to your high school Health class. Time is running out, and your loved one needs your help. Is there anything that can help you?

As grim as this situation may sound, this does happen. Unless you are prepared, the worst outcome can happen.  We at ActiveForever care about our customers, we want to ensure that things like this never arise in anyone’s life, and if it does, we want them prepared. It is for this exact reason that we carry the Philips HeartStart Home Automated External Defibrilator.

Award winning in its design and delivery, the function of the product focuses on starting the heart in a way that can be understood by anyone, regardless of their prior experiences and knowledge. What is so revolutionary about this product is that it acts as an aid, giving clear, concise instructions to a panicked individual and walking them through this stressful task. It not only walks you through the instructions, but based on your own actions, it senses what step is needed next.

What if there is an actual shock necessary? How do you know? Once again, this product will act as your guide. It will only send shock to the heart if necessary. Unfortunately, large numbers of individuals die each year, close loved ones, not because there was no one present at the emergency, but because help did not come on time. People can avoid this loss, and this product ensures the help that so many of us need. The kit instructs the connection of the electrode right above the heart and below the abdomen. When the shock is applied, it sends the charge from the heart in the direction of the corresponding electrode below the abdomen not only starting the heart, but passing the blood flow in the proper direction for recovery.

Does someone need to purchase anything in addition to the kit? Absolutely not. Taking into consideration what would be needed, all necessities are provided. Supplies included in the kit for proper execution during this traumatic experience are in your possession. It includes gloves, paramedic scissors, chest hair razor, breathing mask, as well as extra absorbent paper towels. You have the instructions you need, the supplies that are necessary, and the comfort of knowing something will be there to help.

We never know what life can bring us, what things may come. But in the case of our loved ones, you can never be over prepared. Consider the ones in your life that mean the most to you, and know that whatever the case may be, you will always have a helping hand from this product, as well as ActiveForever.
