Ottawa County’s Life-Saving PulsePoint App

HeartSafe Holland and the Ottawa County Central Dispatch Authority have partnered to bring the PulsePoint app to Ottawa County, offering real-time alerts of sudden cardiac arrest events to the community. The app notifies trained CPR individuals when a cardiac event occurs in a public place and provides directions to the nearest automated external defibrillator (AED). The introduction of the app is a significant step towards improving emergency response and increasing survival rates for cardiac arrest victims in Ottawa County.
