Requires urgent care and retail health clinics to have defibrillator on site and employees trained to use defibrillator.
This bill requires urgent care clinics (which treat acute but non-life-threatening conditions) and retail health clinics (located in stores, pharmacies, or supermarkets offering limited walk-in care) to have an automated external defibrillator (AED) on-site and ensure staff are trained to use it. Clinics must store the AED centrally, maintain it, notify emergency services of its location, and train all employees in CPR and AED use. At least one trained employee must be present during business hours. The law takes effect immediately but allows a one-year implementation period for compliance.
