Register Your AED
Automated External Defibrillators
(AEDs) are used to treat victims of sudden cardiac arrest,
meaning the heart is no longer beating normally. These devices
are capable of checking a victim's heart rhythm and providing a
shock to correct that rhythm. AEDs are valuable life-saving
tools. They are rapidly becoming available to both private
citizens and businesses. In Florida, owners of AEDs are required
to register these devices with the local Emergency Medical
Services (EMS) system. Citizens may do that by calling Marion
County Fire Rescue at (352) 291-8000 or filling out this
form. |
