AED regulations in La Souterraine

A DAE has been compulsory in French public-access buildings (ERP) of categories 1 to 4 since 2020-2021, and in certain category 5 ERP depending on their activity. In La Souterraine, the main town of the CC du Pays Sostranien, this rule concerns the schools, sports venues, shops and healthcare facilities that anchor the local area. The 22 devices already registered on the national GéoDAE database provide a solid foundation; every new device must be added to it, and we take care of that.

Installing an AED in La Souterraine

Far from the major urban centres, La Souterraine benefits from DAE that are accessible around the clock: an outdoor cabinet on a public building, a signposted mount in a busy entrance hall. Our technicians work from the local centre, with no travel from Guéret (30 km) or Limoges (43 km). The service includes mounting, regulatory signage and registration of the device on GéoDAE.

Maintenance and training in La Souterraine

Twenty-two DAE registered in the commune means just as many battery and electrode renewal dates that cannot be missed. From 2 Rue Descartes, our team schedules preventive visits, replaces consumables before they expire and provides documented follow-up. We also train your staff: every minute without defibrillation costs around 10% of the chances of survival.
