That this Council seek to create a database of all Defibrillators within Killarney and to establish public Knowledge as to were these defibrillators are and ow to access them
Great idea Tom. The Killarney website, the town maps and tourist information should all be able to point out the Automatic External Defibrillator (AED) locations.
I think every large school should have its own defibrillator if they don't already have it; St Brendans (can also be supplied to the Presentation nextdoor as needed), the VEC, etc.
I strongly recommend the internationally recognised defibrillator symbol to be used in such maps, etc. and not just the word "defibrillator".
In this link to a symbol legend you can see the AED and Heart symbol for Defibrillator http://www.elpasointernationalairport.com/symbol_legend.html
The cost of an from AED Defibtech Ireland is €1,650plus VAT. Small price to pay for saving a life in my opinion. http://www.aed.ie/int_16.html
