Safety & Compliance · Basic
Inspect each AED unit monthly. Check the status indicator first — a flashing or amber light may indicate a fault. Record pad and battery expiry dates and reorder before they expire.
A monthly inspection checklist for automated external defibrillators (AEDs) to ensure units are ready for use in a cardiac emergency. Covers status indicator lights, electrode pad expiry dates, battery charge levels, cabinet condition and accessibility, signage, and staff awareness.
An AED that fails during a cardiac arrest — because the pads are expired, the battery is dead, or the unit can't be found — represents a catastrophic safety failure. Monthly checks take minutes and ensure the device works when seconds count.
