House Bill No. 2379, known as the "Doran Act of 2025," mandates that all health spas in Oklahoma must have at least one automated external defibrillator (AED) on their premises. The bill defines a health spa broadly, including various organizations and facilities that offer physical exercise programs or equipment. It outlines specific requirements for the placement and accessibility of the AED, including the necessity for unstaffed health spas to have a telephone for emergency calls and visible signage indicating the AED's location and usage instructions.
Additionally, the bill provides legal immunity for health spas and their employees concerning the use or nonuse of the AED, unless the spa fails to comply with the AED requirement or acts with gross negligence. It also states that any contract for health spa services can be voided by the buyer if the health spa does not adhere to these regulations. The act is set to take effect on November 1, 2025.
