Training and practice

The HeartStart is one part of a well-designed emergency response plan. Any emergency response plan should be under the oversight of a physician and should include training in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Philips recommends that you train on the device you will be using.

Several national and local organizations offer combined CPR/defibrillator training.

Contact your Philips representative, or visit us on-line at

www.medical.philips.com, for information about training programs in your area.

NOTE: Training accessories are available from Philips for practicing use of the

HeartStart. See Appendix A for information on ordering accessories.

National and local requirements

Check with your local health department to see if there are any national or local requirements about owning and using a defibrillator.
