AED regulations in Niort

Commercial buildings open to the public within categories 1 to 4 of French public-access buildings (ERP) have been required to have a defibrillator since 2020-2021, an obligation that extends to some category 5 ERP buildings depending on their activity. Each device must be registered on GéoDAE, the French national database: Niort has 230 of them, genuine coverage for 59,854 residents, which companies supplement by equipping their own sites, including those outside the town centre.

Installing an AED in Niort

Entrance hall, staff restaurant, the busiest floor: in an office building in Niort, the DAE's location is chosen to guarantee access in under three minutes there and back. Our technicians install the device, fit the signage and complete the GéoDAE registration. They also work in Saint-Maixent-l'École (23 km), Melle (26 km), Fontenay-le-Comte (28 km) and Secondigny (32 km).

Maintenance and training in Niort

On a commercial site, the DAE is often entrusted to facilities teams that are already stretched. Our preventive maintenance contracts take over: periodic checks, replacement of electrodes and batteries, full traceability. We also train volunteer employees and workplace first aiders in Niort, because every minute without defibrillation cuts the chances of survival by around 10%.
