AED regulations in Belley

A sports facility or school in Belley classified in categories 1 to 4 of French public-access buildings (ERP) has been required to hold a DAE (AED) since 2020-2021; some category 5 ERP establishments are also affected depending on their activity. The device must then be registered on the national GéoDAE database, which lists 38 defibrillators in Belley. A notable figure for a town of this size, consistent with its role as the main hub of the Bugey Sud area.

Installing an AED in Belley

In a swimming pool, the DAE should be placed near the pool, sheltered from splashes; in a school, close to the student support office or the reception. Every minute without defibrillation costs around 10% in survival chances. France Défibrillateur chooses the location with the operator, fits the signage, registers the device on GéoDAE and operates as far as Morestel and Aoste (19 km).

Maintenance and training in Belley

At the poolside, humidity and chlorine put the equipment to the test; in a school, it is the years passing without use. In both cases, France Défibrillateur's preventive maintenance guarantees a device ready to perform. The team also trains lifeguards, teachers and staff in life-saving skills, in Belley and as far as Aix-les-Bains (15 km).
