Local. Reliable. Always on call.

It depends on your space, who will use it, and your budget. If nobody on site is trained, a fully automatic unit removes a decision under pressure. If you want coaching during CPR, look at ZOLL or the Cardiac Science iCPR pads. Tell us your situation and we will recommend rather than upsell.

Free in-person delivery and setup by one of our certified instructors, free AED training for your team, and 12 months of monitoring. Each unit also ships with pads, battery, a case, the medical prescription, a rescue kit and facility signage.

AEDs are prescription devices in the United States, and every unit we sell includes the medical prescription and authorization. You do not need to arrange that separately.

Get in touch and tell us what you have. We can usually help with pads, batteries and readiness checks regardless of where the unit came from.

Yes, and it is included. That is the whole point of buying an AED from a training company rather than a catalog.

The usual rule of thumb is that anyone should be able to reach an AED and get back to a collapsed person within about three minutes. In practice that means thinking about floors, distance and locked doors rather than square footage. Tell us your layout and we will give you an honest answer, including if the answer is one.

Pads and batteries expire, typically every two to five years depending on the model, and the unit should be checked periodically to confirm it is still rescue ready. We include 12 months of monitoring so this does not quietly lapse in year one.

Virginia has Good Samaritan protections designed to encourage bystanders to act in an emergency. We are not lawyers and this is not legal advice, so talk to yours if you need certainty, but fear of liability is rarely the obstacle people expect it to be.

Yes, and it is free. A certified instructor delivers the unit, mounts it somewhere sensible, confirms it is rescue ready and trains your team on it.

Either. Our instructors travel to workplaces, schools, places of worship and community groups throughout Fairfax, Loudoun, Prince William and Arlington counties. If you would rather come to us, we host groups at the Herndon training center.

Yes, for training and for AED purchases, and for teams of any size. Send us your headcount or unit count and we will quote it properly rather than pointing you at a list price.

We are a local, 100% woman-owned small business with over 25 years in the field, and we do both training and equipment. That combination means the AED on your wall is one your team has actually practised on, and that you deal with the same people every time rather than a call centre.
