Swifterbant expanded its AED network and offered free CPR courses
◆1 source
Two additional automated external defibrillators (AEDs) were installed in Swifterbant through cooperation between the municipality of Dronten and the village interest group. The devices were placed at locations identified by the group, bringing the total in the village to eleven; four more AEDs are located in the surrounding area. The aim was to ensure that an AED is nearby throughout the village, including outside building opening hours.
Residents can also take a free CPR course. Health insurers cover the course for some participants, while a subsidy from Windfonds Dronten provides free places for up to 125 people without that coverage.
