What must an AED “Deployment Plan” include?
• Early activation of the local EMS System. • Do not delay dialing 911. • Ensure all employees know the location of the nearest AED in your facility. • Have a group of employees trained to act as lay rescuers. Lay rescuers should be prepared to communicate with EMS personnel on the scene, assist EMS personnel in gaining access to the patient, and informing them of events prior to their arrival.
