2023 IAPD/IPRA Conference

AED Professionals Attended the 2023 IAPD/IPRA Conference

The first conference of the year was a huge success! Our sales team attended the 2023 IAPD/IPRA Conference in downtown Chicago that's hosted yearly for safety teams from park and recreation departments in Illinois. We helped communicate the importance of having life-saving devices easily accessible to the public in their facilities.


The team highlighted products from every category to have attendees start thinking, “Am I prepared to have this kind of emergency?” We showcased our AEDs and some accessories such as indoor and outdoor cabinets. The Mobilize Rescue system was charged up and showed customers how the trauma kit walks them through multiple trauma scenarios. A LifeVac was taken to the event to show how easy it is to use an Airway Clearance Device to remove any obstructions in a victim’s airway.


What's a conference without a prize?! All of our booth visitors had a chance to win an Apple Watch Series 8 or Meta Quest 2!  A huge congrats to Gabrielle O., our winner on the show's final day!

AED Laws | AED Professionals

AED Laws by state

Good Samaritan Laws

The laws that regulate the use of AEDs vary by state. Some require training, registration and oversight from physicians but all 50 protect people who act in good faith with their AEDs in an effort to save a life. 

The laws that limit civil liability for "Good Samaritans" (well-intentioned, but potentially untrained lay-responders) are designed to encourage lay-response if an AED is accessible. It's important to realize that someone that has fallen victim to sudden cardiac arrest is, by technicality, dead. For an AED to save a life, it's estimated that a shock should be deployed, at most, 5 minutes after collapse. Every minute that passes after 5 minutes is estimated to reduce chances of survival by 10% and significantly damages the victim's brain. 


Good Samaritan laws vary by state, and may protect the AED user, to the AED user & the owner from civil liability. AED Professionals highly recommends that you are well versed with your jurisdiction's laws and regulations in place regarding the use and maintenance of Automated External Defibrillators.
