Environmental Health & Safety coordinates the Automated External Defibrillator (AED) program for the University. EHS staff assist departments in procuring AEDs on state contract, maintaining a current inventory of all AEDs on campus, sharing AED locations with our 911 centers and assisting with training personnel on proper usage. Please contact Environmental Health and Safety at (708) 235-6823 with any questions.
The EHS Coordinator is responsible for monthly inspections of AEDs. The Coordinator completes a monthly inspection and documents the inspection on the inspection checklist found in the AED box. If any issues involving an AED are discovered, it is the responsibility of the coordinator to address any concerns with the AED.
Operator's manuals for AEDs currently used on campus can be found below:
If an incident or situation results in the deployment and/or the actual use of an AED, an AED utilization form must be completed. This form allows Environmental Health and Safety to investigate the incident and notifies EHS that the AED will need to go through maintenance before being placed back into service.
