The proposed bill would update current statutes by replacing all instances of "epinephrine auto-injector" with "epinephrine delivery system," thereby modernizing the terminology to include a wider range of devices for administering epinephrine. It would also allow trained first responders to use these delivery systems in emergencies, extending their immunity from professional liability and criminal prosecution when acting in good faith. Additionally, the bill clarifies that there is no established duty to act or standard of care for first responders using these systems, enhancing their legal protections.

Moreover, the bill specifies that school districts and charter schools can stock both juvenile and adult doses of epinephrine delivery systems and accept donations or grants for their procurement. It introduces a definition for "epinephrine delivery system" and mandates annual training for school personnel on recognizing anaphylactic shock and using these systems. The bill also permits self-administration of epinephrine delivery systems by students diagnosed with anaphylaxis, aiming to improve the accessibility and administration of emergency medications while ensuring legal protections for those involved.
