Non-Medical Facility Emergency Protocol Kit (EPK)

Would your employees recognize the signs and symptoms of a heart attack or stroke? Would they know what to do if someone at work was having a heart attack or stroke? Does your worksite have a plan in place to handle these medical emergencies?

To assist worksites to respond appropriately to these types of life and death events, the Virginia Healthy Pathways Coalition has developed an Emergency Protocol Kit for Non-Medical Facilities. The kit includes:

• An introductory letter with instructions on how to use the information provided.
• An 8 ½ X 11 inch flyer that provides the warning signs of heart attack and stroke as well as a flow chart instructing by-standers on what actions to take in the event of such an emergency (for distribution to all employees).
• A 17 X 22 inch poster containing the same information as the flyer that can be posted in strategic areas throughout the worksite.
• Contact information for the American Heart Association’s Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and Automated External Defibrillator (AED) training courses.
