All 50 states have Good Samaritans laws designed to protect companies that choose to deploy AEDs. These laws reduce or eliminate the fear that people who help others could suffer legal repercussions. To receive protection under the Good Samaritan laws, a company must prove they meet all operational requirements for the deployment of an AED Program.
A comprehensive AED Program should:
-
Include a careful site analysis of your physical grounds so that AED placement is optimized for a quick response when needed.
-
Provide a system of checks and balances that governs the use of AEDs within an organization.
-
Incorporate medical oversight and authorization; proper policy and procedure; notification with local, state, and federal authorities; and a support system to monitor ongoing AED Program compliance.
-
Offer AED/CPR training with an ongoing support system that maintains, monitors, and tracks compliance and program efficacy.
