About this template
Maintaining a reliable fleet of Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) is critical for emergency preparedness in any facility. This AED Inspection Checklist form helps safety officers, facility managers, and designated technicians systematically verify device readiness, battery levels, electrode pad expiration dates, and overall operational status.
Designed to streamline monthly or weekly safety audits, this template ensures consistent documentation across multiple building locations or campuses. Inspectors can quickly log serial numbers, check off operational indicators, and note any required replacements directly from a smartphone or tablet while on rounds.
Using Doc2Form to turn this checklist into a Google Form allows your organization to instantly archive inspection records, track audit histories in connected spreadsheets, and ensure life-saving equipment remains fully compliant and ready for use at a moment's notice.
