System and method for administering life safety programs
First Claim
1. A computer system for managing maintenance, operation, training, and program implementation requirements associated with a device, comprising:
- a database module containing maintenance requirement information for the device and actual maintenance information for the device;
a maintenance module in communication with the database module and operable to compare the maintenance requirement information and the actual maintenance information to determine if the device has been properly maintained; and
wherein the maintenance module is further operable to generate a communication indicating that the device has not been properly maintained if the maintenance module determines that the device has not been properly maintained, providing information relating to an action or actions necessary to properly maintain the device, and containing a prompt to perform the action or actions necessary to maintain the device properly.

Abstract
A computer system and method for managing maintenance, operation, and program implementation requirements for specialized equipment used by laypersons to provide assistance to individuals until professional assistance can arrive. The computer system includes a database module for storing maintenance, operation, and program implementation requirement information and actual maintenance, operation, and program implementation information for various pieces of specialized equipment. The computer system also includes a maintenance module that is operable to compare the actual information with the required information to determine if the various pieces of specialized equipment are being properly maintained and operated, and if programs associated with the various pieces of specialized equipment are being properly implemented. If not, the maintenance module generates a communication to the user indicating that fact and provides the user with information regarding the proper procedure to follow to bring the specialized equipment into compliance with requirements.
