AED regulations in Ajaccio

Ajaccio has 81 defibrillators declared on the national GéoDAE register for a population of more than 76,000: coverage can still improve given what is at stake. The regulations help drive this: since 2020-2021, French public-access buildings (ERP) of categories 1 to 4 must be equipped with a DAE (AED), and certain category 5 establishments are covered depending on their activity. Every device must be declared on GéoDAE. This framework rests on a simple fact: every minute without defibrillation removes around 10% in survival chances.

Installing an AED in Ajaccio

Our team on the route de Mezzavia installs your DAE in Ajaccio (20090): selecting a visible, accessible location, fitting the bracket and cabinet, applying the regulatory signage and completing the declaration on GéoDAE. We also cover the rest of the island, from Porto-Vecchio (57 km) to Calvi (66 km), and as far as Furiani and Bastia (96 and 97 km).

Maintenance and training in Ajaccio

In Corsica more than anywhere else, a faulty DAE cannot be replaced within a few hours: preventive maintenance is therefore decisive. Our Ajaccio-based technicians regularly check the electrodes, batteries and self-tests of your devices. We also train your teams in life-saving skills, so that bystanders act within the first few minutes, even before the emergency services arrive.
