Requires institution of higher education to have automatic external defibrillator on premises of each athletic facility and student center.
This bill requires all New Jersey colleges and universities to install automatic external defibrillators (AEDs) in every athletic facility and student center. The AEDs must be placed in unlocked, accessible locations with clear signage during normal operating hours, within reasonable distance of athletic fields. Institutions must also ensure at least two staff members are trained in CPR and AED use during operations, maintain devices per manufacturer guidelines, and notify emergency services of their location and type. The bill grants immunity from civil liability to institutions and staff using AEDs as required. It takes effect immediately upon enactment.
