AEDs (Automated External Defibrillators)

The Franklin Building has two AEDs located in the 1st floor lobby opposite the security desk and the 12th floor hallway corridor between the elevator lobby and President's Reception Area.  In the event of a cardiac medical emergency (or unconscious/unresponsive person) - call 911 - then send a runner to retrieve the nearest AED or call Security
(7-9790) to request the lobby AED be brought to your exact location. Direct any nearby person to summon a trained AED-CPR rescuer (see list below - rescuers can also be identified by the 'AED' symbol on their nameplate).

Portable Oxygen Unit

A portable emergency oxygen unit is located next to the AED in the 1st Floor Lobby. This unit can be used to administer oxygen to someone having difficulty breathing or shortness of breath. It can also be used in conjunction with the bag valve mask (BVM) to resuscitate a non-breathing victim.
