When to use this form
Use this form for monthly AED checks, post-move walkthroughs, and after any incident where a device was used or disturbed. It helps school nurses, safety officers, and facility managers keep a clean AED monthly inspection log, track pad and battery dates, and document fixes before there is an emergency. For broader safety rounds, you can pair this with the Facility safety inspection checklist form and schedule it alongside your Fire door inspection form. Typical scenarios include opening a new office, preparing for a health and safety audit, or managing multiple AEDs across sites, where you need a fast, consistent AED maintenance checklist that your team can complete from any device.
Must Ask AED Inspection Checklist Questions
- Is the AED visible, accessible, and free of obstructions?
This confirms people can reach the device quickly in an emergency. It also surfaces building or layout issues you may need to fix immediately.
- What is the readiness indicator and battery status today?
Recording the indicator (green/ready vs. red/error) and battery level shows if the device will power on when needed. Trend data helps you plan battery replacements before failure.
- Are electrode pads present, sealed, and within their expiry date?
Pads can dry out, so checking the seal and expiry prevents surprise failures. Capturing the exact expiry date supports timely reordering and avoids downtime.
- Are required accessories available (spare pads, pediatric pads if needed, scissors, razor, towel, gloves, barrier mask)?
Having the full kit ensures you can prep the patient quickly and safely. This check reduces delays caused by missing items during a rescue.
- What are the device location, model/serial number, and any issues or corrective actions taken?
These details create a traceable record for audits and warranty support. If you coordinate building-wide reviews, align this record with your Site inspection form to keep locations and actions in sync.
