AED regulations in Beaune

Take a Beaune hotel welcoming several hundred guests: if it falls within categories 1 to 4 of French public-access buildings (ERP), it has been required to be equipped with a DAE (AED) since 2020-2021. Some category 5 ERP establishments are also affected, depending on their activity. Each device must then be registered on the national GéoDAE database, which already lists 138 defibrillators in Beaune. This density reflects the town's tourist and retail fabric, at the heart of the CA Beaune, Côte et Sud.

Installing an AED in Beaune

For a wine cellar or shop in town, the DAE should be placed somewhere visible and accessible, at the entrance or near the reception desk. Every minute without defibrillation reduces the chances of survival by around 10%: location matters. France Défibrillateur installs the device with its regulatory signage, completes the GéoDAE registration and operates throughout the Communauté Beaune-Chagny-Nolay, as far as Longvic (34 km).

Maintenance and training in Beaune

With 138 registered DAE units, Beaune has a sizeable fleet that needs looking after: electrodes and batteries have expiry dates, and a faulty device is of no use when the moment comes. France Défibrillateur provides preventive maintenance for defibrillators, including through hire from 50 € excl. VAT per month with maintenance included, and trains teams in life-saving skills, from hotel staff to seasonal workers on the wine estates.
