I've looked up the various La County EMS agency policies, trying to look for an answer, with no luck.
Is it mandatory that a private 911 bls ambulance carry an AED and trauma/jump kit at all times? Would the crew/their company be subject to a fine similar to when they are inspected and found to not have their cert(s)?
I understand virtually none of the Private IFT companies stock AEDs, yet the do stock jump kits.
I have attached links to some of those policies.
