AED regulations in la rochelle

French public-access buildings (ERP) of categories 1 to 4 have been required to carry a DAE since 2020-2021, and certain category 5 ERP are also subject to the rule depending on their activity. In La Rochelle, the central city of a coastal urban area, this covers a wide range of sites: harbours, conference centres, hotels, shops, sports and cultural venues. The 265 devices recorded on the national GéoDAE database must be added to by every newly obligated operator, registration included.

Installing an AED in la rochelle

From the Vieux-Port to the business parks, our La Rochelle technicians work with you to choose the location with the shortest access time, fit a cabinet suited to the coastal climate and install standard-compliant signage. Our coverage area includes Aytré (6 km), the Île de Ré via La Couarde-sur-Mer (19 km) and as far as La Tranche-sur-Mer (28 km). Every device is registered on GéoDAE at commissioning.

Maintenance and training in la rochelle

Sea air and outdoor exposure accelerate the wear of cabinets and consumables: in La Rochelle, preventive maintenance is not optional. Our team at 348 Av. Jean Guiton checks your devices at scheduled intervals, replaces electrodes and batteries before they expire and records every visit. We also train your teams: around 10% of the chances of survival are lost with every minute without defibrillation.
