8452 - AUTOMATED EXTERNAL DEFIBRILLATORS (AED)
The Board of Education has determined that it may enhance school safety by having an automated external defibrillator(s) (AED) placed in building(s) within the School District.
An AED is a heart monitor and defibrillator that:
| A. | is capable of recognizing the presence or absence of ventricular fibrillation or rapid ventricular tachycardia and determining without intervention by an operator, whether defibrillation should be performed; | |
| B. | charges and, at the command of the operator, delivers an electrical impulse to an individual’s heart. |
The Board directs the District Administrator to develop guidelines that govern AEDs, including the use of the AED(s), placement of the AED, training and oversight by a medical director or by the local EMS Medical Director. The Board also directs the District Administrator, in conjunction with the Medical Director, to review the guidelines, as appropriate. The AED device(s) will be located at school buildings for use by individuals with proper AED training.
