Heart of the Nation Initiatives
Using an AED is simple – just turn it on and it tells you what to do.
The AED is your team leader effectively directing you in what needs to be done step by step.

Advocacy
We are not just about providing the community with practical solutions, but we engage with leading organisations and government to help effect change in important areas of this field.
At Heart of the Nation, we champion the importance of having a unified standard for signage that is not only highly visible but also easily identifiable, ensuring accessibility in critical moments. This is why we advocate for and recommend yellow signage. Our collection includes an array of yellow signage options, both wall-mounted and floor-mounted cabinets, distinctly designed to differentiate your AED from standard first aid equipment. Discover more in our store or reach out to us for additional information.
