A 2549 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Requires monthly inspections of all AED equipment

This bill requires all public schools to inspect and test every automated external defibrillator (AED) device at least once a month. School staff members must hold valid certification in AED operation to perform these inspections, following both manufacturer guidelines and government standards. If an AED fails to meet standards during inspection, it must be replaced immediately through the school's emergency health care provider. Schools must also keep written records of all inspections and tests, submitting them annually to the state health commissioner. The law applies directly to all public schools and their designated staff responsible for AED maintenance.
