Ultimate Judo Invests in a Philips FRX AED Defibrillator – Because Safety Comes First

At Ultimate Judo, we are committed to creating a safe and supportive training environment for all our members. As part of this commitment, we are proud to announce that we have invested in a Philips FRX AED defibrillator – one of the most reliable and effective Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) on the market.

Why an AED?

Cardiac arrest can strike anyone, at any time, regardless of age or fitness level. Having an AED on-site means we are prepared for any emergency. The Philips FRX AED is designed for both adults and children, ensuring that we are equipped to handle any situation swiftly and effectively.

The Life-Saving Power of an AED

• Every minute counts – Using an AED within the first 3–5 minutes of sudden cardiac arrest can increase survival rates by up to 70%.
• User-friendly design – The AED provides clear, step-by-step voice instructions, making it easy to use even for those without medical training.
• Peace of mind – While we hope we never have to use it, having an AED on-site ensures that we are always prepared.

Looking After Our Community

This investment is part of our ongoing efforts to prioritize health, safety, and well-being at Ultimate Judo. We encourage all our members to take a moment to familiarize themselves with where the AED is located – because you never know when quick action could make all the difference. Our coaches will be trained on how to use our specific model.

We are proud to take this step towards a safer training environment and appreciate the support of our incredible Ultimate Judo family. Let’s continue to train hard, stay safe, and look out for each other!
