In Nebraska, AED programs are mandated to incorporate AED placement reporting. Under the Good Samaritan law, individuals using AEDs for AED-related activities are safeguarded from liability. However, this protection does not extend to other AED program activities or participants. Immunity is not contingent upon adherence to specified administrative and operational requirements. Notably, Nebraska does not stipulate any specific location for the placement of AEDs.
Nebraska Law Key Takeaways
- Good Samaritan Law: Individuals providing emergency care or treatment with an AED won't be held liable in civil actions if administered in good faith.
- EMS Notification: AED acquirers are required to inform local EMS about the presence, location, and type of AED.
AED's save lives every day and you can make a difference! Besides the states requirements, we believe AED's should be readily available everywhere, within arms reach in case of an emergency.
