Smart Monitoring for AED Cabinets

Smart technology has transformed the ability to monitor an AED to ensure it is always operational. AED cabinet monitoring now exists that provides real-time remote alerts when an AED is accessed or an issue arises. With text/SMS and email notifications, AED caretakers can now ensure devices remain rescue-ready 24/7.

Factors to Consider When Choosing Remote Monitoring

📍 Location – High-traffic or remote areas may benefit from active monitoring.
👥 Ownership – Who is responsible for checking and maintaining the AED?
🔒 Theft Concerns – Monitoring deters misuse and provides alerts if an AED is removed.
🌡 Extreme Temperatures – Alerts ensure AEDs stay within safe temperature ranges.
💰 Budget – Consider long-term savings from reduced maintenance and downtime.
