MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE

Monday, November 25, 2024

QUESTION NO.

QUESTION: Councillor T. Costello

To ask the manager can SDCC engage with Tallaght Community First Responders in relation to connecting power to AED to keep them warm during winter months

REPLY:

Defibrillators have been installed at many locations around the county including at County Hall, Tallaght and the Clondalkin Civic Offices, and at all Public Libraries. These are provided and maintained by the Council and can be accessed by the public during opening hours of that building. 

There are numerous AED's provided throughout the County by a wide variety of groups from local community groups, sports organisations, large shopping centres, individual pharmacies and private commercial companies. The upkeep and maintenance of defibrillators is the responsibility of the relevant sports club, community group or management company that takes on to install an AED on their property.
