When cardiac arrest strikes, the first few minutes decide everything: each minute without a shock reduces the chances of survival by around 10%.

Available services:

• Defibrillator sales and rental
• Installation and commissioning
• Preventive and corrective maintenance

AED regulations in rochefort

Rochefort has 118 defibrillators registered on the national GéoDAE database, evidence of genuine coverage for a town of this size. Since 2020-2021, French law has required a DAE in French public-access buildings (ERP) of categories 1 to 4, and in certain category 5 establishments depending on their activity, with mandatory registration on GéoDAE. If your premises in the 17300 area are not yet equipped or registered, we carry out the installation and the formalities to bring you into this emergency network.

Installing an AED in rochefort

To be useful, a defibrillator must be visible and accessible: a reception area, an outside wall, a sports facility or a tourist site. Our technicians install the device, fit the statutory signage and register it on GéoDAE. Based on Avenue Victor-Louis Bachelar, we cover the whole of the CA Rochefort Océan and beyond, reaching Surgères 23 km away, Aytré at 24 km, Saint-Pierre-d'Oléron at 28 km and La Rochelle at 30 km. Hire available from 50 € excl. VAT/month, maintenance included.

Maintenance and training in rochefort

A fleet of more than a hundred devices means dozens of batteries and electrodes to keep track of. Our preventive maintenance contracts schedule checks and replacements so that every DAE in Rochefort remains permanently operational. We also train your teams in life-saving skills: an employee who can perform chest compressions and use a defibrillator without hesitation gains the minutes that count before the emergency services arrive.
