AB 163

Current law requires every school board and the governing body of every

private school to provide a standard first aid kit for use in cases of emergency. This

bill requires school boards and governing bodies of private schools to make

accessible, as part of a first aid kit, an anti-choking device that is registered as a

Class I or Class II medical device with the United States Food and Drug

Administration. The bill also requires school boards and the governing bodies of

private schools to annually provide training on the use of anti-choking devices

according to the device manufacturer's instructions.
