Unfortunately, the defibrillator located outside our Cork office has been stolen. 💔
We are at a loss as to why anyone would do this, as the device is intended solely for use in life threatening emergencies. HSSCU is deeply saddened by this reckless act, which has potentially put lives at risk by removing access to a vital piece of lifesaving equipment.
We are currently working to locate the device. If this is not possible, we will arrange for a replacement to be installed.
If anyone has any information regarding the whereabouts of the stolen defibrillator, please do not hesitate to get in touch. We would also appeal to those responsible to return it. The device is of no value outside of an emergency situation, but it could make all the difference in saving a life.
