Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs)

An Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is a portable device designed to restore a normal heart rhythm during sudden cardiac arrest. AEDs analyse the heart’s rhythm and deliver a shock if necessary, providing vital assistance before emergency services arrive. They are essential in workplaces, schools, sports facilities, and homes for increasing survival rates in cardiac emergencies. For business managers and facility operators, having an AED on-site demonstrates a commitment to staff safety and legal duty of care. AEDs are recommended in public buildings and high-occupancy areas, helping to ensure rapid response to cardiac incidents. Homeowners also benefit from having an accessible AED, especially for families with elderly or at-risk members.

What is the difference between an AED and a defibrillator?

An AED is a type of defibrillator that is portable and designed for use by members of the public as well as trained personnel. They are easy to use with automated voice instructions and safety features.

Where should I place an AED in my building?

Install AEDs in visible and accessible areas where they can be quickly reached in an emergency, such as near reception areas, gyms, or assembly points.

Who can use an AED?

AEDs are designed for use by anyone, including trained staff or members of the public. Voice prompts guide users through the process and they are fitted with safety features.

How do I maintain an AED?

Regularly check battery status, electrode pads, and device readiness. Follow manufacturer guidelines for replacement and testing schedules. Book a professional inspection service from The Defib Pad if you are unsure about how to check the condition or for added peace of mind.

Are AEDs legally required in the UK?

Automated external defibrillators (AEDs) are not currently mandated by law in most UK workplaces or organisations, but they are strongly recommended by health and safety bodies. Many employers choose to install them as part of their duty of care, particularly in rural areas or in areas where a defibrillator is not available nearby. State schools in the UK are the exception and are now madated to provide AEDs.
