In a city with busy workplaces, campuses, public buildings, and high-traffic facilities, AEDs need to be ready before an emergency ever happens.
Life Support Systems helps Chicago organizations keep AEDs inspected, stocked, documented, and ready for emergency response.
From high-rise offices and schools to healthcare facilities, hotels, gyms, warehouses, public venues, and multi-site operations, AED readiness requires more than owning the right device. It takes routine service, current pads and batteries, clear placement, and a program your team can rely on.

Speak with an expert to tailor a program for your organization.
Chicago facilities move fast. Employees, students, patients, guests, residents, and visitors pass through busy buildings every day, often across multiple floors, entrances, departments, and shared spaces.
An AED program should be built for that reality. Devices need to be easy to locate, regularly checked, properly supplied, and supported by people who know what to do when a medical emergency occurs.
Life Support Systems supports AED service and maintenance programs for organizations across Chicago and nearby communities.
Support AED access across corporate offices, multi-tenant buildings, coworking spaces, lobbies, security desks, and shared workplace areas.
Help protect students, staff, athletes, visitors, and faculty with maintained AEDs and coordinated emergency response planning.
Support clinics, dental offices, outpatient centers, senior living communities, and care facilities with structured AED readiness.
Keep AEDs ready in hotels, gyms, restaurants, recreation centers, event spaces, and high-traffic public environments.
AEDs can be missed between staff changes, expired supplies, building updates, and inconsistent inspection routines. Life Support Systems helps Chicago teams keep their AED programs organized, current, and ready before an emergency happens.
Many Chicago organizations manage more than one AED, more than one floor, or more than one location. Without a clear system, it becomes easy for pads to expire, batteries to age, devices to be moved, or inspection records to fall behind.
Life Support Systems helps facility managers, HR leaders, operations teams, school administrators, and safety coordinators manage AED readiness across real-world building environments.
In office towers, hotels, schools, hospitals, and public buildings, AED placement should support fast access. We help organizations consider where devices are located, how visible they are, and whether staff can reach them quickly.
For organizations with multiple Chicago-area offices, clinics, warehouses, gyms, or campuses, LSS helps create a consistent AED maintenance process across locations.
AED readiness often involves several teams, including HR, security, front desk staff, building engineers, safety managers, and operations leaders. We help make the program easier to manage.
AED checks should fit into normal safety and facility routines. Our support helps reduce confusion around who checks the device, when supplies need attention, and what happens when an alert appears.
Life Support Systems is not just an AED supplier. Since 1977, we have helped organizations build emergency readiness programs with equipment, on-site service, training, oversight, and long-term support. Our work is designed to help your team stay prepared before an emergency happens.
We support AEDs, cabinets, wall signs, pads, batteries, pediatric accessories, and placement planning based on your facility layout.
We help train employees, security teams, coaches, front-desk staff, facility teams, and designated responders to act with more confidence.
We support device checks, supply expiration tracking, battery review, inspection documentation, and service recommendations.
We help organizations think through response roles, 911 activation, AED retrieval, responder coordination, and readiness restoration after use.
Many AED service calls begin with a simple problem: the device is beeping, showing an alert, displaying a red X, or has expired supplies.
Life Support Systems helps Chicago organizations identify AED supply issues and restore device readiness with pad, battery, and accessory replacement support.
AED batteries should be tracked by device model, age, status, and manufacturer guidance. We help organizations stay ahead of battery replacement before a low-battery alert becomes a readiness concern.
AED electrode pads expire and must be replaced after use when required. We help track adult pads, pediatric pads where needed, and replacement timing so supplies stay current.
A complete AED station may include cabinets, wall signs, rescue kits, carrying cases, scissors, gloves, razors, and other response supplies. We help identify missing, expired, or damaged accessories.
A beeping AED or red X usually means the device needs attention. LSS can help review the issue, identify likely causes, and support the steps needed to return the AED to a rescue-ready condition.
An AED program works best when equipment, people, supplies, and documentation all support the same goal: fast, confident response.
Life Support Systems helps Chicago organizations move beyond one-time AED placement and build a practical readiness process around the device.
AEDs should be easy to locate in areas such as entrances, lobbies, security stations, fitness areas, cafeterias, front desks, elevators, and shared public spaces.
Pads, batteries, rescue kits, pediatric accessories, cabinets, and signage should be reviewed as part of the broader AED readiness process.
A consistent inspection rhythm helps confirm AED status indicators, cabinet condition, supply dates, visibility, and basic access.
After an AED is used, moved, serviced, or flagged with an alert, the program should be reviewed so the device and records are brought back up to date
