| ||
Sec. 15. Automated external defibrillator required.
| ||
(a) By the dates specified in Section 50, every physical | ||
fitness facility
must have at least one AED on the facility | ||
premises. The Department
shall adopt
rules to ensure | ||
coordination with local emergency medical services systems
| ||
regarding the
placement and use of AEDs in physical fitness | ||
facilities. The Department may
adopt
rules requiring a facility | ||
to have more than one AED on the premises, based on
factors
| ||
that include the following:
| ||
(1) The size of the area or the number of buildings or | ||
floors occupied by
the facility.
| ||
(2) The number of persons using the facility, excluding | ||
spectators.
| ||
(b) A physical fitness facility
must ensure that
there is a | ||
trained
AED user on staff and present during all physical | ||
fitness activities. For purposes
of this Act, "trained AED | ||
user" has the meaning ascribed to that term in Section 10 of | ||
the Automated External Defibrillator Act.
| ||
(b-5) The Department shall adopt rules that
encourage any | ||
non-employee coach, non-employee instructor, or
other | ||
similarly situated non-employee anticipated rescuer
who uses a | ||
physical fitness facility in conjunction with the
supervision | ||
of physical fitness activities to complete a course of
| ||
instruction that would qualify such a person as a trained
AED | ||
user, as defined in Section 10 of the Automated External | ||
Defibrillator Act. | ||
(b-10) In the case of an outdoor physical fitness facility, | ||
the AED must be housed in a building, if any, that is within | ||
300 feet of the outdoor facility where an event or
activity is | ||
being conducted. If there is such a building within the | ||
required
distance, the building must provide unimpeded and open
| ||
access to the housed AED, and the building's entrances shall
| ||
further provide marked directions to the housed AED. If there | ||
is no
such building, the person responsible for supervising the | ||
activity at the outdoor physical fitness facility shall ensure | ||
that an AED is available at the outdoor facility during the | ||
time that the event or activity at the facility is being | ||
conducted.
| ||
(c) Every physical fitness facility must ensure that every | ||
AED on the
facility's
premises is properly tested and | ||
maintained in accordance with rules adopted by
the
Department.
