Sara Henn, Customer Care Coordinator with AED Superstore, the world’s largest distributor of automated external defibrillators joins eHealth Radio and the Heart Health, Emergency Care & Health News Channels to discuss unraveling the mystery of AED Ownership Laws.
Listen to interview with host Eric Michaels and guest Sara Henn discuss the following:
We have been hearing a lot about automated external defib-rillators recently and they seem to be popping up in more and more public places, but I have heard there are some who are concerned about buying an AED because each state has laws governing AED ownership, and they are all a little different. What can you tell us about that?
Let’s talk about each of those components - the first one you mentioned was oversight by a physician - what, exactly, does that mean? Do I have to have a doctor come in and check my AED?
You mentioned training. Is this just training on the AED itself? And are the people who are formally trained the only ones who should use the device?
So notification of emergency medical services - this is your local 911 center, right? Should you need to let them know you have an AED?
So the last thing you mentioned is maintenance - I am assuming this is maintenance of the device itself?
It sounds like there could be a lot to remember with regard to AED laws - do you have any recommendations to make life easier for our listeners?
Sara Henn is proud to be a part of Allied 100, LLC. She has been with the company for 10 years and her current role is Customer Care Coordinator. Her primary function is to train and inform the customer care team.

Dr. Renjie Chang, Founder of NeuEve, a source for vaginal suppositories and cream promoting natural sexual wellness joins eHealth Radio and the Female Health & Sexual Health Channels.
Listen to interview with host Eric Michaels & guest Dr. Renjie Chang discuss the following:
What are the major gaps in women's healthcare today, and is that what inspired you to create NeuEve?
What is NeuEve and how does it work?
For vaginal atrophy, how does NeuEve compare to estrogen?
For bacterial vaginosis, how does NeuEve compare to boric acid, douching, or antibiotics?
I heard that breast cancer survivors and hysterectomy patients love NeuEve. Why is that?
Summary: NeuEve provides a non-hormonal remedy for vaginal atrophy and dryness, better than regular vaginal moisturizers and lubes. After menopause, sex can become difficult due to vaginal atrophy. Estrogen supplements help, but estrogen greatly increases cancer risk. NeuEve also clears bacterial vaginosis (BV) effectively and naturally. Current BV treatments often lead to recurrent BV, but NeuEve, in taking an alternative and more holistic, caring approach, breaks the cycle.
Renjie Chang, M.D., M.S. graduated from Peking Union Medical University, the most prestigious medical school in China. Seeing patients in clinic firsthand, she always practiced medicine with a focus on both hard science and a soft bedside manner.In the US, she worked as a faculty member of OB-GYN at University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center, and as a drug developer at the Abbott Laboratories in Chicago. At Abbott, she learned the vital skills of inventing and creating medicine. It’s a very different skill set than simply prescribing medicine.After she left Abbott, she won grants from NIH and Gates Foundation for developing a new way to prevent the sexual transmission of HIV. It was while performing this research that she was inspired to create NeuEve. For Dr. Chang, NeuEve has been the culmination of a lifetime of learning and experience.
