Alabama

In Alabama, CPR devices must be well-maintained for reliable use. Distributors should also keep up with updates and service needs. Formal CPR training is encouraged to improve emergency response. Yet, it is not required for device users. Manufacturers need to provide training materials with every unit. The Alabama Good Samaritan Law protects anyone using CPR devices in emergencies. This holds true even if they don’t meet strict standards. K–12 schools and assisted living facilities need CPR devices for public safety.
