In Hawaii, there are no specified administrative or operational requirements imposed on AED programs. Under the Good Samaritan law, immunity protection is extended to all participants involved in AED programs, but solely for activities directly related to the use of AEDs. However, any other management activities related to AED programs are not encompassed by this immunity. Additionally, Hawaii does not mandate the placement of AEDs in any specific locations or areas.
Hawaii Law Key Takeaways
Good Samaritan Protection: Individuals acting in good faith, without compensation, who attempt to resuscitate a person facing imminent life-threatening circumstances using an AED, are shielded from civil liability for any resulting damages.
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.
