AED regulations in Épinal

What does the law actually say? Since 2020-2021, French public-access buildings (ERP) of categories 1 to 4 must have an automated external defibrillator, and some category 5 ERP are required to as well, depending on their activity. Each device must be registered in the national GéoDAE database: Épinal already has 193 DAE (AED) units listed, a dense network befitting its 32,251 residents. Public offices, concert venues, sports facilities and local shops are among those most directly concerned.

Installing an AED in Épinal

To install a DAE in Épinal, we work with you to identify the most useful location: a reception hall, an outside wall, or a sports facility within the CA d'Epinal. Installation includes the wall bracket, standardised signage and registration on GéoDAE. If purchasing is not the right option, rental from 50 € excl. VAT per month, maintenance included, keeps you compliant over the long term.

Maintenance and training in Épinal

With 193 defibrillators listed on GéoDAE, Épinal has a substantial fleet that needs looking after: regular checks of each device, replacement of electrodes and batteries before they expire, and updates to the registration. Our preventive maintenance takes care of all this, and our life-saving skills courses prepare your teams to act quickly: every minute without defibrillation reduces the chances of survival by around 10%.
