Star 1063 has a defibrillator for the general public to use in the event of sudden cardiac arrest.
*We are located at Level 1, 181 Sturt Street, Townsville and are open Monday to Friday.*
The Heart180 Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is designed to be used by anyone, with clear step-by-step voice instructions that can guide members of the public through the process.
Heart disease is a leading cause of death in Australia, with those who suffer a sudden cardiac arrest having a 6 per cent chance of survival in Australia. However early defibrillation can increase survival to 70 per cent.
