Hartford Financial Services Group Inc. has given a total of 14 potentially life-saving devices to 3 schools near its Hartford headquarters.[@@]
Hartford donated the devices, automated external defibrillators, to Hartford Public High School, Quirk Middle School and West Middle Elementary School.
Hartford says it began pushing for use of AEDs, which can shock a stopped heart back into beating again, several years ago, after a commercial customer asked whether adopting an AED program could help with risk management.
