AED regulations in Mende

Mende has 48 defibrillators registered on the French national GéoDAE database, notable coverage for a town of 12,464 residents. The obligation remains current: since 2020-2021, French public-access buildings (ERP) of categories 1 to 4 have been required to have a DAE (AED), and certain category 5 establishments are also covered depending on their activity. Registration on GéoDAE, which is mandatory, ensures that every device in Mende can be located by the emergency services and bystanders at the critical moment.

Installing an AED in Mende

In Mende, our installers position DAE units according to how spaces are actually used: public buildings, town-centre shops, business parks and the sports facilities of the CC Coeur de Lozère. Every installation includes mounting, statutory signage visible from a distance and registration on GéoDAE. The offer adapts to local budgets: purchase or rental from 50 € excl. VAT per month, maintenance included, for a device that is always ready to serve.

Maintenance and training in Mende

When Millau is 60 km away and Saint-Chély-d'Apcher 35 km, the reliability of the local DAE fleet becomes a public health issue in its own right. Our technicians provide preventive maintenance in Mende: regular checks, replacement of electrodes and batteries, and documented follow-up. We also train your teams in the 48000 area in life-saving skills, because every minute without defibrillation reduces the chances of survival by around 10%.
