North Shore Pickleball Club Highlights Need for Court AED's

19/8/2023

 
Estha Parg Murenbeeld, President
On Behalf of the North Shore Pickleball Club
August 19th 2023:


"Tragically, a much-loved member of our community collapsed at the courts after a pickleball game and, despite immediate, competent and compassionate care by the people present, passed away.  We will never know if he could have been saved; however, the club has committed to being better prepared for any future emergencies.  Thought we’d share our process in case its of any use to another club."

The need for AED's is outlined in a timely fashion in the open letter Estha published as a guideline for other Clubs. According to a Health Canada, “Early access to cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and defibrillation (1 to 3 minutes after cardiac arrest) is vital. These actions may increase the chance of survival by 75% or more.”
