A Lobby AED is Not Zone Coverage

The time factor

Placing a single AED in the ground-floor lobby of a multi-story office or large retail mall creates a critical delay. If an incident happens on the top floor, the round-trip retrieval time can cost precious minutes.

Zone-based placement

Facilities should plan for a ~1-minute round-trip access to emergency equipment. This means zoning your facility and placing both AEDs and CPR assistants like CPRAIDR® within those accessible zones.

Wall-ready visibility

VitalSigns provides a wall mount for CPRAIDR®, keeping it visible and accessible. Early CPR guidelines (like AHA/ERC) serve as a reminder that immediate action is necessary. A well-placed device ensures that guided adult (18+) CPR can begin without delay.
