AED regulations in Itxassou

You do not need to be a large town to be affected: the requirement to install a DAE has applied to French public-access buildings (ERP) of categories 1 to 4 since 2020-2021, and to certain category 5 establishments depending on their activity, which may include accommodation or reception facilities present in Itxassou. The national GéoDAE register currently lists 9 declared defibrillators in the commune. Every newly installed device must be declared there: this is a legal requirement, not a mere formality.

Installing an AED in Itxassou

Installing a DAE in Itxassou means choosing a busy thoroughfare, fitting compliant signage and declaring the device on GéoDAE: we take care of all three steps. Our technicians operate from the commune out towards Bayonne (14 km), Saint-Jean-de-Luz (18 km) and Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port (26 km), with a local point of contact rather than a distant provider.

Maintenance and training in Itxassou

Expired electrodes or a flat battery: a poorly maintained defibrillator no longer meets the regulatory requirement.
