What drives us to make positive change.
Preventable Loss ❤️🩹
33,000 people experience an out of hospital Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) each year in Australia. It is our goal to reduce the unnecessary and preventable loss of lives.
Our Why 💔
Response For Life was created in memory of loved ones lost to sudden, and often unexplained, cardiac death. It is our hope that no family suffer such an unbearable loss.
Our Commitment 🤝
Response For Life is a registered Charity committed to saving lives by providing defibrillators and raising awareness of Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA).
RFL Background
An alarming number of Australian lives are being cut short by sudden death every day.
Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) can happen to anyone at any time.
It can affect seemingly healthy athletes and even teenagers with no prior health conditions.
33,000 people experience an out of hospital SCA each year in Australia. It is our goal to reduce the unnecessary and preventable loss of lives.
As there are very few symptoms, but too often no symptoms at all, the first sign that something is wrong may be sudden collapse, loss of consciousness, no breathing, loss of pulse and no sign of life…..an emergency situation within seconds.
High quality CPR coupled with DEFIBRILLATION is the only definitive treatment of SCA. CPR attempts to maintain circulation of blood and oxygen, while a defibrillator (AED) delivers an electrical pulse through the heart in an effort to restore the normal heart rhythm.
Prompt CPR and DEFIBRILLATION offers the victim the best chance of survival until emergency help arrives compared to the catastrophic effects of doing nothing at all. The challenge is for AED’s (Automated External Defibrillators) to be available and applied within minutes of SCA.
