What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill exempts a school bus operator, a public, private, or tribal school,

Cooperative Educational Service Agency, or County Children with Disabilities

Education Board employee, or a volunteer authorized in writing by a school, CESA,

or CCDEB administrator or principal from civil liability for his or her acts or

omissions in administering an opioid antagonist to a pupil or other person who

appears to be undergoing an opioid-related drug overdose. The person who

administers the opioid antagonist must, as soon as practicable, report the drug

overdose by calling “911” or, if “911” is not available, the telephone number for an

emergency medical service provider.

Under current law, any of the persons authorized above may, similarly, use an

epinephrine auto-injector to administer epinephrine to any pupil who appears to be

experiencing a severe allergic reaction and administer glucagon to any pupil who the

person knows is diabetic and who appears to be experiencing a severe low blood sugar

event with altered consciousness, provided the person reports the allergic reaction

or low blood sugar event.
