Cardiac on Campus, a student-run organization on the UW-Madison campus, has partnered with the Madison Fire Department and City of Madison to make AEDs more accessible in the downtown area.

Representatives from partnering agencies will explain why access to automated external defibrillators (AEDs) is critical for cardiac arrest survival, how to use these SaveStations and AEDs, and why this initiative places special focus on the campus and downtown areas.
