Atrium Health is making a substantial donation of life-saving devices to every partnering school in the greater Charlotte area. 

With the support of the Greg Olsen Foundation, and in partnership with DeFibtech, the donation of 89 automated external defibrillators (AEDs) ensures that athletic trainers at local schools have vital life-saving equipment at their fingertips during practices and games.

Jennifer Gardner, RN, MBA/MHA, and Assistant VP of Outreach at the Atrium Health Musculoskeletal Institute, helps to lead the effort to ensure that schools are equipped with the tools needed to protect the health and well-being of student-athletes.
