Rhode Island State Laws

Registered health clubs must have at least one AED and one employee trained in CPR/AED on the premises. Effective August 1, 2017, all middle and high schools must provide and maintain AEDs on site. Good Samaritan protection from liability for ordinary negligence (but not for gross, willful, or wanton negligence) is extended to rescuers who have received CPR/AED training; this protection also extends to the owners of the AED, the owner or lessor of the property where the emergency care is rendered, and CPR/AED trainers. Untrained users may not be entitled to immunity from liability. All high school students must be trained in CPR/AED prior to graduation. Facilities capable of holding 300 or more people shall have an AED on the premises. This includes educational facilities, government and public buildings, restaurants, retail establishments, malls, sports arenas, theaters, and more.
