A
While
fire
chief
in
san
ramon
in
2009,
he
was
having
lunch
in
a
deli
when
a
fire
engine
arrived
to
respond
to
a
cardiac
arrest
victim
in
an
adjacent
store
and
had
he
known
what
was
happening,
he
could
have
gotten
to
the
victim
minutes
earlier,
making
a
big
difference.
He
wasn't
carrying
a
radio
that
day
but
was
like
most
of
us
carrying
a
smartphone
and
he
had
a
moment
of
inspiration
which
was
followed
by
years
of
perspiration.
A
Today,
as
president
of
the
nonprofit
pulse
point
foundation,
his
team
has
brought
pulse
point
to
over
1100
communities
across
22
states.
It's
now
gone
international
as
well.
I
believe,
and
a
and
10,000
citizen
responders
have
been
activated
to
help
3,500
victims
locally.
Our
County
Fire
Chief
Ken
kemnu,
represented
today
by
deputy
chief
Tony
bogan,
got
it
bowden
about.
He
got
it
and
was
able
to
bring
the
ten
fire
agencies
throughout
Santa
Clara
County
on
board.

A
We'll
go
back
and
click
to
receive
notifications
of
CPR
incidents
and
we
could
add
other
kinds
of
incidents
too.
It's
a
good
way
of
keeping
track
of
lots
of
things
in
town
and
now
that
we're
configured
we
get
a
list
of
events.
Yellow
ones
are
active,
gray
ones
occurred
within
the
last
day
or
so
we
can
also
look
at
a
map
view
and
zoom
in,
just
as
we
would
in
any
other
mapping
application
with
an
overlay
of
the
incidents
active
and
inactive
and
get
more
information
about
them.
A
The
app
has
instructions
on
how
to
administer
CPR
and
how
to
use
a
defibrillator
or
ad,
but
please
take
time
to
get
trained,
you'll
find
links
to
classes
at
the
county
fire
website
under
the
community
outreach
tab.
Now,
let's
move
on
to
the
yellow
pulse
point
AED
app,
which
lets
anyone
submit
locations
of
aedes
after
review
by
the
county,
the
adsr
published
and
shown
on
the
map
in
the
red
app
that
we
saw
a
moment
ago
and
gosh
on
the
slim
chance
that
you
carry
an
android
phone
I'm
told
it
works
on
that
as
well.
