Cal Poly's Public Access Automated External Defibrillator Program Site Responsibilities
An Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is a portable medical device which can restart the heart of a person in cardiac arrest. AEDs are simple and safe to use when the manufacturer’s instructions are followed. Departments are encouraged to explore purchasing this potentially life-saving device; however there are responsibilities and costs that come with owning and maintaining a departmental AED. Cal Poly's Public Access AED Program Site Responsibilities document outlines the program requirements for AED's on campus. Additionally, three supporting documents for the AED program are listed below.
