Prescription/Medical Authorization
Most AEDs require a
prescription/medical authorization prior to purchase. Since AEDs are
medical devices they are all tracked and controlled by the FDA.
Prescriptions are to be obtained only from a MD. We take the hassle away
from our clients so they need not locate a MD of their own in order to
acquire these prescriptions. As a courtesy to our clients, Lifesavers,
Inc provide prescriptions where applicable at no additional costs.
By
accepting our prescriptions, you concur to the responsibility to comply
with all the legal and recommended requirements for your AED program.
These include but are not limited to, medical oversight, continuous AED
program compliance, equipment maintenance, the appropriate ongoing
CPR/AED training and certification, policies and procedure updates and
event summary reviews.

Medical Direction/Oversight
Some
states also require that the person of company obtain medical
oversight/direction (M.O.)from an MD that specializes in Emergency
Medicine. The MO ensures compliance with all local and state
regulations. M.O. means that this physician is overseeing your
company's initial implementation process.
MO entails :
Development
and review of policies and procedures and protocol defining the
standards of patient care and utilization of the AED.
Oversee the initial and continuing AED training.
Review of response documentation and rescue data for all uses of the AED.

AED tracking / online program management
All
AED's pads & batteries have expiration dates or shelf lives
depending on the brand/model of the unit. Pads typically have shelf
lives from 1.5 to 5 years. Batteries normally have shelf lives from 2 to
5 years. It can be quite challenging for a company to keep track of all
these expiration dates especially if there are several AEDs in the
facility. If the AED's pads are expired and/or batteries are dead, the
AED will be virtually useless. Also, some manufactures indemnification
policy are void if AEDs are implemented with a depleted battery or
expired pads.
To save your company the trouble from potential
lawsuits, we offer an excellent online solution that tracks the
expiration dates of these accessories. Our state-of-the-art online
