DEFIBS ON THE DASH: AMAZON DRIVERS PILOT EMERGENCY RESPONSE ROLE
In “Project Pulse,” Amazon strapped defibrillators to delivery vans in Amsterdam, London, and Bologna — because if they’re already tearing through your street, why not zap a heart back to life between stops?
100+ drivers got CPR training and joined local cardiac alert apps, turning Prime vans into part-time ambulances with better parking instincts.
Philips provided the AEDs, and yes, they still come with Prime efficiency — just no guaranteed 2-minute response time.
Survival rates jump to 90% if a shock is delivered within a minute — and with 70% of heart attacks happening at home, Amazon’s vans may already be closer than the ambulance.
Good PR for a company often blamed for congestion and burnout — and let’s be honest, saving lives looks pretty good on a résumé.
