Kentucky Lawmakers Revisit 24-Year-Old AED Law to Make Life-Saving Devices More Accessible

Kentucky lawmakers are considering changes to a 24-year-old law regarding automatic external defibrillators (AEDs) to make them more accessible. House Bill 22 aims to address the existing barrier for small businesses and the public to obtain AEDs by amending the requirement for physician oversight. The proposed changes could alleviate financial burdens on schools and small businesses, making AEDs more accessible to the public.
