At Ibiza Rocks Hotel, we are committed to the safety and well-being of everyone who steps foot in our facilities. One of the key initiatives in this regard is the training and implementation of the Automatic External Defibrillator (AED).
What is an AED?
An Automatic External Defibrillator (AED) is a portable electronic device designed to diagnose and treat sudden cardiac arrest. It is a crucial tool in emergency situations where a person's heart suddenly stops beating effectively. The AED is capable of analysing the heart rhythm and, if necessary, delivering an electrical shock (defibrillation) to restore a normal heartbeat.
AED Locations
At Ibiza Rocks Hotel we have two AED devices strategically located to attend to any cardiac emergency in a timely manner.
Clearly marked visible signage will guide you to these locations.
One of the AEDs is located in the main lobby of the Hotel next to the entrance door on a pillar, in a cabinet with a glass door.
The second is located at the Doctor/Nurse Room on the event level, outside, on the wall, in a cabinet with a glass door. *** If the medical team are present, the AED unit maybe removed & located inside the Medical room, please check if not in the box on the wall.**
Emergency Response
In the event of an emergency, anyone present at the scene must remove the AED from its location. If trained personnel are on site, they should lead the AED recovery process. For those not trained in the use of the AED, the device provides clear and concise instructions. Follow the visual and voice prompts provided by the DESA.
AED summary
The AED, or Automated External Defibrillator, is a portable electronic device designed for use in emergency situations, especially in cases of sudden cardiac arrest. It analyses the heart's rhythm through adhesive electrodes and can deliver an electrical shock to restore the normal heartbeat. Although training is beneficial, AEDs are designed to be used by people without formal medical training.
