Emergency AED finder
If someone collapses and is not breathing normally, call emergency services, start CPR, and send someone to get an AED. This page searches mapped AED data near your location.
There is no reliable worldwide AED map, and most places do not have a reliable countrywide one. Ask emergency dispatchers, staff, security, and bystanders too.

Detecting likely emergency number...
Tap “Find AED near me” to search actual mapped AEDs. If results are empty, ask the emergency dispatcher, building staff, security, reception, gym/pool staff, or bystanders. A mapped AED may still be locked inside a closed business, airport zone, school, office, or shopping centre.
Use the AED
Open the AED case or press the power button. It will speak instructions.
Bare the chest. Put the pads on exactly as shown in the AED pictures.
Do not touch the person while the AED analyzes or shocks.
After shock or no shock, restart chest compressions immediately.
Where to look
Look near entrances, reception desks, security desks, gyms, pools, schools, airports, malls, hotels, offices, train stations, apartment lobbies, and sports venues. Check access: many AEDs are locked away after hours.
Country and state registries
There is no reliable worldwide AED system, and many countries do not have a reliable countrywide public AED map. Links here are included only when a public map, registry, app, or official data source could be found. Coverage can still be incomplete, closed, app-only, or dependent on local owners keeping records current. A listed AED may be locked inside a closed business, airport area, school, office, gym, or shopping centre. In a cardiac arrest, call emergency dispatch and ask for the nearest AED.
