Georgia's Mason Sells AED Coordination Act Takes Effect
Seminole County E-911 is pleased to announce the implementation of Georgia Senate Bill 399, the Mason Sells AED Coordination Act, which strengthens emergency response for victims of sudden cardiac arrest.

Beginning July 1, 2026, the law requires Automated External Defibrillator (AED) owners to register their devices with their local 9-1-1 center. This allows emergency dispatchers to identify nearby AEDs and guide callers to them while emergency responders are on the way, improving the chances of survival during a cardiac emergency. Businesses, schools, churches, community organizations, and other AED owners are encouraged to register the location of their AEDs with our office.

"We are committed to providing the best possible emergency care for our community. Having accurate AED location information enables our dispatchers to connect callers with lifesaving equipment when every second counts."

Businesses, schools, churches, community organizations, and other AED owners are encouraged to register the location of their AEDs with this office.

For more information about AED registration, contact Seminole County E-911 at 229-524-5115 or visit our website at www.seminoleso.org under the “more” tab.
