Sharon Adds 4 Public-Access AEDs Across Town

SHARON, MA — Sharon has expanded public access to lifesaving emergency equipment at four locations across town.

Four automated external defibrillators have been installed at Sharon Center, Sharon High School, Sharon Middle School and the Sharon Community Center. The Sharon Fire Department partnered with Sharon Public Works, Sharon Public Schools and Sharon Recreation to install the equipment.

The new AEDs are located outside Angel’s Café near the “Welcome to Sharon” sign, along the high school walkway to the new bleachers and press box, between the middle school track and tennis courts and on the shed next to the community center’s pickleball courts.

The units join five existing public-access AEDs at the East Foxboro Street pickleball courts, Deborah Sampson Baseball Field, Ames Street Playground, Main Beach near the lifeguard office and Gavins Pond Soccer Field.

Sisters at Heart provided support for the project, according to the Fire Department.

The Fire Department and Sharon Public Health Department will also begin offering public CPR classes in September. Registration details and class schedules will be announced later.
