Scouts receive life-saving defibrillators The Utah Department of Health's (UDOH) Bureau • of Emergency Medical Services is providing two automated external defibrillators (AEDs) to the Great Salt Lake Council of the Boy Scouts of America and the Girl Scouts of Utah. The two life-saving AEDs will be placed at the Steiner Boy Scout Camp and Cloud Rim Girl Scout Camp. In addition, the UDOH is making A£Ds available to rural communities. AEDs are small, lightweight devices that look at a person's heart rhythm. If a person is in sudden car- diac arrest, the AED can shock the person's heart back into rhythm. Sudden cardiac arrest claims more than 340,000 lives each year, primarily because life-saving treatment, or use of AED, does not reach the victims within the first critical minutes.
