The CFAES Safety team has installed nine new Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) in multiple locations on the Columbus campus, including Waterman Agricultural and Natural Resources Laboratory, and Molly Caren Agricultural Center.  The Wooster campus has successfully maintained an AED program for several years and this model was used to implement the additional AEDs.

Locations on the Columbus campus that already had an AED included:
