The officer conducted chest compressions and a second shock before being relieved by the Santa Clara Fire Department. The patient was transported to a local hospital and according to hospital representatives was alert and talking.
St. Justin’s Church parishioners, Communications Dispatchers, Officers Habib and Lagergren as well as members of the Santa Clara Fire Department are credited with quick response to restore the heart’s normal rhythm and save a life.
In September, 2014, the Santa Clara Police Department expanded its public safety resources to include Automated External Defibrillators (AED’s) to give anyone impacted by sudden cardiac arrest another chance at life. The Santa Clara Police Department utilized Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) grant funds to purchase five AED’s. Eventually, Police Chief Michael J. Sellers plans for all of the Santa Clara Police Department’s patrol vehicles to be equipped with AED's.
