Why Should I Register My AED?
Good Question! It is city ordinance that anyone owning an AED within the MedStar System (see city list in next column) must register it on this site. When you register your AED, the information is made available to the 911 communication center. When the 911 communication center downloads your information, it is stored in the computer aided dispatch system. If someone at your location calls 911, the dispatcher can access your AED information and help the caller apply the AED. That's right, registering your information and keeping that information current, might help save a life someday!
Who Should Register?
Businesses or organizations that have at least one AED placed anywhere in their building or on site should register with 911.
What About Privacy?
You have a choice of allowing visitors see your information when they visit this website or keeping the information private. We will only share your information with visitors if you say it is OK to do so. The intent of this registry is to share your AED information with the 911 center. It is important for you to understand, however, that once we give the 911 center your information, we have no control over that information any longer. If you want others to know that you have taken a positive step towards improving the safety of those who visit your business, work site, or organization, just select the public option when you register and your information will appear on this website for others to see. Information about registered AED is shared with our steering committee for the purposes of quality assurance and to monitor the progress of AED registration.
How Do I Keep My Information Current?
What if you move to another building, move your AEDs to different locations, or add another AED? No problem, just log into your account, access your information, and make changes. Each time you make a change and save it, the 911 center receives an email notifying them that you have changed your information. |
