Where it fits: First Responder Use of Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is an official system operations reference used to verify responsibilities, communications, documentation, qualifications, or administrative requirements. OCEMS lists it under “300.00 - 399.99 - Medical Control.”
Document note: Use the complete official document for mandatory wording, exceptions, definitions, and requirements that cannot be reduced safely to directory metadata.
Use this source safely
- Identify whether the document governs field care, communications, provider qualifications, system administration, or an agency process before using it.
- Confirm the effective source, current agency procedure, and any required forms, approvals, or notifications in the complete document.
- Use the source index date as a directory signal, not as proof that no later notice or agency instruction applies.
- When the PDF and a summary differ, follow the current official document and medical or operational direction.
