Executive suites and board meeting floors typically see considerably less daily foot traffic than a busy office floor, yet often house a genuinely older, more senior demographic worth its own AED thought.
An Older Demographic by Nature of Seniority
Senior leadership and board members tend to skew older than the broader workforce, directly intersecting with age-related cardiac risk factors covered elsewhere.
Lower Foot Traffic Can Mean Slower Notice
A quieter executive floor with fewer people passing through means a medical emergency here could take longer to notice than on a busier open floor.
Meeting Rooms With Closed Doors Add a Complication
Board meetings and executive discussions often happen behind closed doors, potentially delaying awareness of a colleague in distress inside.
Executive Assistants as a Natural Point of Awareness
Assistants and support staff on executive floors, already positioned to notice unusual patterns, are sensible candidates for AED training specific to this quieter environment.
Don't Let Seniority Reduce Perceived Urgency
Ensure executive floor coverage receives the same genuine attention as busier areas, rather than being assumed lower priority simply due to lower daily traffic.
