Requiring recreational facilities have AED accessible

Summary

The bill amends West Virginia’s code to mandate that any public or private recreation facility keep an automated external defibrillator (AED) accessible while the facility is open. It also expands the existing “cardiac response” requirements for schools, obligating them to adopt written emergency plans, train staff, and inform families about sudden cardiac arrest. The goal is to improve rapid response to cardiac emergencies and save lives.
