The University of Santiago de Compostela decided to adopt cardio-protection measures on its campuses, through the installation of semi-automatic defibrillators (SAED) and the training of its employees so that they know how to act in the case of emergency situations, among which cardio-respiratory arrest is highlighted.
You do not need to be a doctor to save a life. All you need is knowledge, some courage and the necessary equipment. A person's life can be cut short by a sudden cardiac arrest. It can happen to anyone, at any age, at any time.
USC security personnel are also trained in the use of the semi-automatic defibrillator (SAED).
- Santiago security patrol telephone number: 600 940 050 (24 hours).
- Lugo security patrol telephone number: 647 344 344 (Monday to Friday from 3 p.m. to 8 a.m. Saturdays and Sundays 24 hours).
- Decree 99/2005, of 21 April, regulating the training and use of external defibrillators by non-medical personnel.
