Project Brock Society
Brock Ruether 1995 - 2012
The Project Brock Society is driven by a single goal;
To Create Heart-Safe Schools.
Our vision is informed by comprehensive empirical studies and
high-quality data evaluation.
We strive to build productive relationships with
Canadian Schools and vital stakeholders to educate staff and students on the importance of immediate Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and the use of an Automatic External Defibrillator (AED) during a Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA).
Our mission is to ensure schools all over Canada have an AED and are trained and prepared to use it in a medical emergency.
Every Moment Matters
in Sudden Cardiac Arrest
The best chance of saving a life
is within the first 4 minutes
of a Sudden Cardiac Arrest.
It takes an average of six minutes (urban /suburban areas) and 14 minutes (rural areas) for first responders to arrive.
Immediate CPR and the availability
and use of an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) can double or triple a person's chance of survival.
Survival rates decrease by 7-10 percent with each minute of delayed defibrillation.
Often there is no prior warning sign that indicates a person at risk of Sudden Cardiac Arrest.
Together, with your help we
can save many lives.
