Quanta installs a defibrillator on site

Over the summer thousands of football fans witnessed the cardiac arrest of Danish footballer, Christian Eriksen, whilst he played for his country in their opening match of the Euros. Fortunately, due to a defibrillator being at the stadium, Eriksen survived and is on the road to recovery. All thanks to the quick response of the medical team.

David Broome, a Director at Quanta, explained the moment that put the defibrillator plan in to action: “Saturday 12th June was the catalyst for our decision to install a defibrillator at our Berkhamsted headquarters. When I sat and watched a supremely healthy athlete suffer a cardiac arrest live on the television it acted as a timely reminder of how fragile life is.  The well-being of our staff will always be our number one priority and whilst I hope we never need to use the defibrillator, we now have this available for all including the wider Berkhamsted community, where Quanta has called home for over 20 years.”  

The installation is for the safety and well-being of not only our team but the local community too, and we will share the news of the defibrillator’s arrival with as many members of the local community as possible.

The defibrillator can be found outside the entrance HQ in Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire and can be accessed 24 hours a day for use on adults and children.
