AED regulations in Saint-Chamond

The rule is easy to remember: since 2020-2021, all French public-access buildings (ERP) in categories 1 to 4 must be equipped with an automated external defibrillator, and certain category 5 ERP are also required to have one depending on their activity. In a town of 35,646 inhabitants such as Saint-Chamond, this concerns many sites: sports facilities, shops and reception venues. Each device must then be registered on the national GéoDAE database, a step we take care of on your behalf.

Installing an AED in Saint-Chamond

The right location is chosen on site: permanent access, visibility and protection from the weather. In Saint-Chamond, we install your DAE units on building fronts, in entrance halls or near sports halls, with regulatory signage and GéoDAE registration included. The 42400 centre also covers La Talaudière 7 km away, Rive-de-Gier 8 km away and Saint-Priest-en-Jarez 10 km away. Rental from 50 € excl. VAT per month includes maintenance.

Maintenance and training in Saint-Chamond

A poorly maintained DAE (AED) may fail on the very day it is needed. Our technicians based on rue du Clos Marquet carry out preventive maintenance on the 74 devices recorded in Saint-Chamond as well as on newly installed units, checking electrodes, batteries and signage. We also train your teams in life-saving first aid, since every minute without defibrillation reduces the chances of survival by around 10%.
