Readiness Systems offers services and resources that enable and support the placement and use of automated external defibrillators (AEDs) in workplace and community settings to treat those experiencing sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). AED programs are established to do two very important things in those rare instances when SCA strikes: Use volunteer bystanders to start cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and get functioning AEDs to the people who need them.

Readiness Systems helps organizations create policies and practices that ready them for SCA emergencies, guide what actions should be taken if SCA is encountered and help manage the legal risks that come with owning AEDs. And we help AED programs keep equipment ready for use, comply with AED laws and know how to responsibly meet AED program best practices.

Here are some of the ways we can work with your organization.

Remote AED Monitoring Services

When your AEDs are needed, you need them to be ready. But, because of human inspection lapses, more than 1 in 5 AEDs may not be ready for use leading to avoidable deaths and lawsuits. That’s why Readiness Systems developed AED Sentinel, the first remote AED monitoring system built for every AED program. AED Sentinel uses technology to automatically inspect AEDs so humans don’t have to.

Regulatory Compliance Services

The Challenge

Lots of Different Rules: Rules governing the placement and use of AEDs exist in every state. But each state imposes differing sets of requirements on AED programs.

The Rules are Hard to Understand: Knowing how to be compliant in each state is a big challenge because rules are complicated, poorly written, sometimes changing, lack a clear purpose, and no agency is in charge to provide guidance.

Compliance with the Rules is Important: Addressing the rules and properly documenting compliance is important to preserve Good Samaritan legal protections in some states and to help support a lawsuit defense in every state.
