Under existing law, each local board of education and governing body of a nonpublic school must develop and implement a cardiac response plan. The plan must include appropriate placement of automatic external defibrillators (AEDs) pursuant to the recommendations of the American Heart Association or another similar group. This bill would require the placement of AEDs in athletic event venues on school property and at any school-sponsored athletic event or practice in which students are participating.
