AED regulations in Issoudun

The national GéoDAE register lists 41 declared defibrillators in Issoudun (36100), a notable level for a commune of 11,159 residents. The obligations are the same as elsewhere: French public-access buildings (ERP) of categories 1 to 4 equipped since 2020-2021, some category 5 ERP depending on their activity, and mandatory declaration of every device on GéoDAE. In a town far from the other centres of the Berry, this register helps the emergency services quickly find the nearest DAE.

Installing an AED in Issoudun

A DAE in Issoudun belongs at the points where the Pays d'Issoudun converges: town-centre shops, sports facilities, businesses around Rue Gustave Eiffel and the reception areas of establishments in the 36100 area. We carry out the siting study, the installation with regulatory signage and the GéoDAE declaration. Hire from €50 excl. VAT per month, maintenance included, avoids tying up any capital.

Maintenance and training in Issoudun

Issoudun's self-reliance extends to its DAE fleet: the 41 declared devices must stay ready without depending on distant call-outs. Our preventive maintenance anticipates the expiry of electrodes and batteries and checks every cabinet. We complement this monitoring with on-site training, because every minute without defibrillation reduces the chances of survival by around 10%.
