Your Parish Defibrillators
If you are dealing with a medical emergency and need a defibrillator, please send someone to get one of the two we have in public places in Spratton.
Our defibrillators are located:
- On the wall of the Kings Head Pub, adjacent to the car park (https://w3w.co/upsetting.transmits.releasing)
- On the wall of the Community Centre next to the Recreation Field car park (https://w3w.co/highlighted.responded.admires).
Click on the What Three Words links for specific locations.
No training is required to use these units, though you should always ring 999 in the first instance. The ambulance service will give you the code to unlock the cabinet and will help you deal with your emergency, getting an ambulance on the way to you too.
The defibrillators is an “intelligent” type, in that it will speak to you and give you instructions on what to do. Click on the link below to watch the video for more information on how to use a defibrillator.
There is also a wide range of information available on the St John Ambulance website about how to use defibrillators and what to do in a medical emergency. Please check the below link for information to help make you more prepared to deal with such things should they happen.
