Follow the steps to complete the checklist effectively.

1. Press the ‘Get Form’ button to access the checklist and open it in your editing tool.
2. Begin with the header section by entering today's date, your name, the name of the school, and the name of the district. Ensure that you fill out only one checklist per district as an initial assessment.
3. Identify the type of school you are representing by selecting the appropriate option: Preschool, Elementary, Middle, High School, Private, or Other.
4. Provide the contact details for the CPR-AED site coordinator or contact person. This includes their name, email address, and phone number, as well as the main phone number for the school.
5. Proceed to the section regarding Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs). Answer each question related to the AED's accessibility, signage, performance checks, and first responder kit availability by choosing 'Yes,' 'No,' or 'Need Help.' Leave comments for clarification if necessary.
6. Next, address the Cardiac Emergency Response Team section. Identify whether a CPR-AED site coordinator and a designated response team exists, consisting of at least 10% of staff or 5-10 people. Again, respond to each statement and provide comments as needed.
7. Move on to the Cardiac Emergency Response Plan. Confirm the existence of a written plan, an established communication code, notification of local emergency medical services, and sharing the emergency plan with community groups. Record your responses and comments.
8. Complete the Training section by assessing whether CPR-AED training is updated, if all staff are aware of AED locations, and whether they have received annual training on sudden cardiac arrest. Document responses and comments.
9. In the Cardiac Emergency Response Drills section, indicate if at least one annual drill is conducted. Include comments about your program or any additional details as necessary.
10. Once you have filled out all sections, review your entries carefully for accuracy and completeness.
11. Finally, save your changes to the checklist. Depending on your needs, you can also download, print, or share the completed form with your local Project ADAM representative.
