Join Advanced Care Paramedic, Adam Loria, for a discussion on accessing emergency services, when to call 9-1-1, and how to manage an emergency situation until help arrives. Adam will also go over uses of an Automated External Defibrillator (AED), a portable electronic device that can analyze a person's heart rhythm and deliver an electric shock to restart it during sudden cardiac arrest, and answer any frequently asked questions you may have about emergencies.
