Saving lives with emergency call boxes: Neubiberg is installing four systems. Defibrillators increase the chance of survival.

Around 100,000 people suffer heart failure every year in Germany. The chances of survival increase by up to 60 percent through immediate use of a defibrillator. “As soon as the emergency call button is pressed, the rescue control center will contact you and support first responders until the ambulance arrives,” emphasizes the municipality of Neubsiberg.
