4 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA MEMO
ARKANSAS
MEETING OF APRIL 7, 2015
TO:
Mayor and City Council
FROM:
Greg Tabor, Chief of Police
DATE:
March 20, 2015
SUBJECT:
Purchase of Automated External Defibrillators for Police Vehicles
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval to purchase Automated External Defibrillators (AED) for
police vehicles from Lifesavers, Inc. via state contract in the amount of $40,869.80.
BACKGROUND:
The AED is a valuable tool to have in the event of a cardiac arrest or heart attack and is
an important part of giving CPR. The use of an AED is recommended by the American Heart
Association for persons doing CPR. Since patrol officers are often the first emergency
personnel to arrive on scene, it is very important for the officers to have this device in their patrol
vehicle when they arrive on scene in the event someone is having a cardiac emergency.
DISCUSSION:
The use of an AED is taught to the officers during Basic Life Support for Healthcare
Providers (CPR) classes, so there will not be any additional training costs associated with his
purchase. Each AED will be held in a soft carry case with two sets of adult defibrillation pads
and one set of pediatric defibrillation pads. This purchase will equip each marked patrol unit
with its' own AED and allow for several unmarked units to be assigned an AED.
BUDGET/STAFF IMPACT:
Funding for these AEDs is budgeted in the 2015 Operating Budget via a request made
through the Capital Improvements Program. There is no impact on staffing levels with this
purchase.
