Lifeguard for Tietelsen and Rothe: Defibrillators now ready!

In the charming villages of Tietelsen and Rothe, which belong to the city of Beverungen, there is now a real lifesaver! The two places have equipped themselves with the installation of publicly accessible defibrillators (defis). In Rothe, the device is emblazoned at the fire brigade house, while Tietelsen proudly presents a defi on his church. These strategically placed devices are not only easy to find, but also in an emergency at lightning speed!

The importance of these life -saving devices cannot be assessed high enough. Around 65,000 people die of sudden cardiac arrest in Germany every year. But with a defibrillator nearby, the survival rate increases dramatically! Florian Derenthal, chairman of the Grundberghalle operator association, emphasizes that the purchase was made possible by the support of all clubs and generous donations. "A joint project that shows the strong club community - across all towns," says Derenthal.

a project with heart

The installation of the defis was inspired by a painful memory of an incident on the soccer field when a young athlete suffered from chamber fibrillation. Thanks to immediate help, it could be saved, but the excruciating 20 minutes until the ambulance arrives remained unforgettable. "A profit for the villages," says Derenthal and emphasizes how important fast medical care, especially in rural areas, is. The defis are designed in such a way that they can also be operated by laypersons - they automatically give instructions that make use easier.

The financing of the defibrillators was ensured by generous donations by regional companies such as Westphalia Weser, Volksbank Höxter and Sparkasse Paderborn-Detmold. These companies take their social responsibility seriously and support such important projects. On December 5th, an information event for the Defi will take place in the Grundberghalle Tietelsen, which is headed by Franke medical technology. A step that not only increases the security of the citizens, but also strengthens the sense of community in Tietelsen and Rothe!
