Officials say these new AED units have the following benefits:

The unit uses the same pads for a child or adult
The digital display provides 'Real CPR Help' which measures the depth and rate of compression.
Over the years, the District has been fortunate to have AEDs in our buildings. The decision to replace all of our AEDs at one time allows the District to have uniformity in training of our staff and in purchasing replacement parts.

GBAPS officials add that the purchase of the new AED units also shows the district's facilities department's efforts to ensure the well-being of students, staff, athletes, and visitors to their schools.
