California

In California, CPR devices need proper maintenance. They should be clearly placed and easy to access, following state rules. Building managers, school officials, and vendors must tell occupants where devices are. They should also offer training opportunities. Liability protection under the California Good Samaritan Law only applies if you meet these requirements. To improve emergency readiness, CPR devices must be in places like fitness centers, public pools, schools with sports, some transit services, and large new or renovated buildings. Also, California high schools include CPR instruction as part of student education.
