PulsePoint
PulsePoint is a series of apps that help public safety agencies inform and engage their residents and community members. Two apps are available:
- PulsePoint Respond is a 911-connected app that can immediately inform you of emergencies occurring in your community and can request your help when CPR is needed nearby; and,
- PulsePoint AED is a simple-to-use tool that enables you to help build the public AED (automated external defibrillator) registry in your community.
Download one or both of the apps to start participating in this life saving program from your app store.
Choose to follow Oshawa Fire and set the notifications in the PulsePoint Respond App to 'Nearby CPR-needed' to receive alerts when cardiac emergencies take place near you. At this time, PulsePoint is available in Oshawa, Brock, Scugog and Uxbridge.
