EBCF - AUTOMATED EXTERNAL DEFIBRILLATORS (AED’S)
The Board recognizes that from time to time medical emergencies may arise that warrant the use of an automated external defibrillator (AED). RSU 21 intends to have one or more AED’s for use in its schools and at school athletic events.
The Superintendent shall be responsible for developing, in consultation with the school physician or qualified expert, and in accordance with the manufacturers’’ instructions protocols for the use, storage, location, testing, and maintenance of the district’s AEDs.
Although the Board authorizes the acquisition of AEDs, it cannot and does not guarantee that an AED will be available at any particular school site or school-sponsored event.
