School Materials

The Sudden Arrhythmia Death Syndromes (SADS) Foundation recommends that every child with a SADS condition has a personalized care plan, a school Medical Emergency Plan and an AED in place.  We want to ensure that school officials are aware of the implications of SADS and are prepared to respond to an emergency immediately.
