Please do not send any monies to CHT until you have registered your scheme, and have agreement from the local ambulance service for the establishment of a cPAD scheme. All schemes must be registered with the local ambulance service (CHT will also undertake this or you can do via this site, but this does not remove responsibility for you to notify the local ambulance service of your AED location). 999/112 (ambulance) must always be called prior to using a cPAD equipment. All schemes will be asked to sign an agreement taking responsibility for their own fund raising and operation of the cPAD equipment.
