Starwood’s Sheraton San Diego Hotel & Marina property has earned the designation of CardioReady Certified Meeting Space.

To earn the designation, the property completed a 20-step review process assuring that American Heart Association guidelines are followed for protecting guests, attendees and employees from sudden cardiac arrest — a leading cause of death, killing more than 330,000 per year in the United States alone. Requirements for receiving certification include medical supervision, strategic placement of automated external defibrillators (AEDs) throughout the facility, trained staff, documented equipment testing and maintenance programs, coordination with local emergency response entities, and compliance with local, state and federal regulations.
