How it all began
Staying Alive Health was born in 2019 when Brooke saw first-hand as a local Councillor in The Hills Shire and involved with a very large little athletics club, the urgent need for more defibrillators, increased public accessibility and public awareness, but more importantly the lack of monitoring for defibrillators, that needed a solution to address many of these issues, that also included a high number of defibrillators being misplaced in an emergency and defibrillators that were not rescue ready due to flat batteries.
As a result of many months of research both locally and internationally Staying Alive Health are pleased to announce an exciting new agreement as the exclusive distributors in Australia and New Zealand of the Rotaid 24/7 4G fully monitored security cabinet for Automated External Defibrillators (AED).
Sadly over 30,000 people suffer a Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) in Australia every year, it’s our largest killer, with less than 5% surviving without a defibrillator or proper CPR, however with a fully monitored defibrillator by Rotaid 24/7 and good CPR, your chances of survival can increase to over 70%!
What makes us different
Quality Engineering & Manufacturing
The Rotaid 24/7 was designed, engineered and manufactured in the Netherlands, and meets the highest standards when it comes to functionality, reliability and durability, with over 50,000 sales across Europe and new offices opening in the US later in 2022. Our team at Staying Alive Health have one goal in mind…….ensuring the Rotaid 24/7 and its distinctive green LED light becomes the international symbol of publicly accessible defibrillators in Australia and New Zealand.
Market leading technology
The Rotaid 24/7 comes with a range of incredible features that make the Rotaid 24/7 the market leading fully monitored IP56 rated cabinet, that includes Telstra/Optus connectivity, giving you the best coverage in the country. The Rotaid 24/7 notifies you, other staff members and first responders by email/text if your AED is removed, when it is returned, when batteries/pads need replacing, but more importantly the Rotaid 24/7 ensures your AED is being monitored 24/7 so if your AED fails its self-test, you will be notified immediately therefore maximising your chances of saving the life of a loved one, friend, colleague or neighbour.
