Guide steps
3 short steps to standardize the response.
Watch-outs
4 risk checkpoints to keep execution clean.
Call / Coordinate
- Check responsiveness and call emergency services immediately.
- State exact location and access details.
- Assign roles out loud: caller, CPR lead, AED runner.
CPR / First actions
- Start CPR quickly when indicated by local protocol.
- Keep compression quality consistent and rotate every ~2 minutes.
- Minimize interruptions during handoff and AED analysis.
AED / Device actions
- Bring AED to scene quickly and power it on.
- Follow voice prompts exactly for pad placement and rhythm checks.
- Resume CPR immediately after prompts unless instructed otherwise.
Pads expired
Risk: Poor electrode contact can reduce effective analysis or shock delivery.
What to check: Verify pad expiry date and replace before due date.
Battery expired
Risk: Device may fail to power or complete full response cycle.
What to check: Record battery expiry and replace before threshold.
Inspection overdue
Risk: Readiness drift goes unnoticed and can delay response.
What to check: Confirm latest monthly inspection date and log owner.
Heat / cold exposure
Risk: Pad gel and battery chemistry degrade faster in poor environments.
What to check: Audit cabinet placement, sunlight, and temperature exposure.
Run one drill and one scenario next
Use the same sequence while the guide is still fresh. Keep the reps short and action-first.

Practice from the guide, then request team follow-up
Use one public practice step now. Request team follow-up only when the guide needs to move into a real rollout.
- Open one item
- Keep what helped
- Ask only when ready
Keep for later
