Keeping the Beat

Keeping the BeatThe City of Rochester police department has been running an early defibrillation program since 1990 that has deployed automatic external defibrillators (AEDs) to locations throughout Rochester and Olmsted County.  This innovative and highly successful program has given 103 individuals a second chance at life.  We invite you to watch a video about the program, and find out how you as a business, individual or community can help save lives too.
