Measure K funding allocated for Daly City’s AED program

DALY CITY – Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) is an event that occurs too often out-of-hospital. Access to automated external defibrillators (AEDs), a medical device designed to detect the heart’s rhythm and deliver an electrical shock if needed, in public places improve the chances of survival from SCA. As a public agency, it is critical that AEDs be accessible to community members and staff in Daly City. San Mateo County District 5 Supervisor David Canepa has requested a one-time $148,176 grant to the City of Daly City to install 36 automated external defibrillators in public facilities citywide and provide associated training, in order to prioritize the safety of community members, which the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors approved on June 13, 2023.

“This $148,176 investment in Measure K funding to purchase and install 36 automated external defibrillators (AEDs) in its public facilities will make Daly City a healthier and safer city and protect the public and staff who access these facilities. Sudden Cardiac Arrest can strike any one and AEDs are proven to increase the chance of survival. I’m proud to support the city’s priority to save lives,” San Mateo County

District 5 Supervisor David Canepa.

“Daly City is fortunate to have Supervisor David Canepa advocating for the safety of our community members and staff. Allocating Measure K funding to launch 36 AEDs in over 19 public facilities across the City is a tremendous gesture,” said Daly City Mayor Raymond Buenaventura.

“The automated external defibrillators (AEDs) can save lives in our community. Many residents and workers in our community have heart disease – this is essential in our public facilities. Thank you for your continued partnership, Supervisor David Canepa,” Vice Mayor Juslyn Manalo stated. (Daly City Release)
