Laws
Each state has specific requirements for establishing an AED program. These requirements typically cover obtaining an AED, training, and medical oversight.

For information about the laws in your state, visit the National Center for Early Defibrillation, National Conference of State Legislatures, view a summary of School AED Legislation, or contact Cardiac Science.

The Federal Cardiac Arrest Survival Act of 2000 [ pdf 92.0KB ] provides additional Good Samaritan protection against liability for properly trained lay rescuers and acquirers of AEDs.
