Published studies show that more than 70 percent of sudden cardiac arrests occur in the home. The HeartStart Home Defibrillator is ideal for those who wish to be able to help save the life of a friend or relative who suffers cardiac arrest at home.

Dr. Sciammarella and Claire DeSetto were among a select group of AED Trainers designated as Preferred Providers in the HeartStart Home Defibrillation Training Network, after attending the workshop held recently on Long Island.

The defibrillator is available to consumers with a physician's prescription. Health Training Consulting will prescribe the defibrillator for you, assist you in obtaining the unit, and provide training in your home on this new life-saving device.
