As offices return to full operation each January, the new year brings a natural organizational pause for review — a genuinely sensible, recurring moment to check AED readiness alongside other annual resets.
A Natural Pairing With Other January Reviews
Many organizations already review budgets, policies and staff onboarding needs in January — AED status checks fit naturally into that same seasonal review rhythm.
Confirm Nothing Expired Over the Holiday Period
With reduced staff attention during the December holiday season, January is a sensible checkpoint to confirm no battery or pad expiry was missed during that quieter period.
New Year, New Staff Onboarding
January often brings new hires starting fresh contracts — a natural moment to build AED orientation into their onboarding from day one, as covered in our new office setup guide.
Refresh Training Before It's Overdue
If your organization's last training session was over a year ago, January is a sensible, memorable trigger point to schedule a refresher before it's forgotten entirely.
A Simple, Recurring Annual Habit Worth Building
Treating January specifically as your organization's annual AED review month creates a reliable, memorable cadence rather than an ad-hoc, easily-postponed task.
