New Defibrillator at Hotel Říčky

After consultation with the municipality of Říčky in the Orlické Mountains and emergency services, we have decided to invest in the safety of all visitors to our facility and have purchased an automatic external defibrillator (AED).

Why is an AED so important in a mountain resort?

In mountainous areas, professional medical assistance can be 20-30 minutes away. During sudden cardiac arrest, the first minutes are absolutely crucial, and quick intervention can mean the difference between life and death. That is why we decided to equip the facility with this life-saving device.

Where can you find the defibrillator?

The defibrillator is located at the entrance to Hotel Říčky with 24/7 continuous access and is available for the entire facility. The hotel staff has undergone professional training in its use. Additionally, the AED is equipped with voice guidance in Czech, which allows even an untrained person to use it in case of emergency.

We hope this device will never need to be used. However, if it is needed, it can save the most precious thing – a human life.
