S 3130 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Authorizes public access defibrillation providers to possess and carry automated external defibrillators in personal motor vehicles

This bill allows public access defibrillation providers (such as trained community volunteers or first responders) to legally carry automated external defibrillators (AEDs) in their personal vehicles. It amends health law to explicitly authorize these individuals to possess and transport AEDs while traveling in their cars. The change removes a prior legal barrier, enabling faster access to life-saving equipment during cardiac emergencies outside of formal medical settings.
