Bill > S03130

This bill amends the New York public health law to explicitly authorize public access defibrillation providers to possess and carry automated external defibrillators (AEDs) in their personal motor vehicles. A public access defibrillation provider is typically a trained individual or organization authorized to use AEDs in emergency situations to help people experiencing sudden cardiac arrest. By allowing these providers to keep AEDs in their personal vehicles, the bill aims to increase the potential availability and accessibility of these life-saving devices in emergency situations. The legislation is straightforward, adding a single new paragraph to an existing section of the public health law, and is set to take effect immediately upon enactment.
