At 27 years old, Scott Nevers was already in a fight for his life after suffering sudden cardiac arrest.

It would take an entire system of care to save him – from bystanders calling for help and an EMS team who refused to give up, to more than 20 shocks from an AED and excellent post-arrest care at his local hospital. 

Nicole Kupchik, MN, RN, recently spoke with Scott and the EMS team who helped save his life, which included Biddeford Fire Department deputy chief Kevin Duross, firefighter/paramedic Rob Mertz, and training educator Tim Sevigny.
