Senate Bill No. 1062, also known as Public Act No. 23-192, is a legislative act concerning the provision of emergency medical services to individuals who are in direct contact with or under the custody or control of a peace officer. The bill defines an "emergency medical condition" as a condition that requires prompt medical attention to prevent serious jeopardy to health, serious impairment to body function, or serious dysfunction of any body organ or part. It also defines "medically unstable" as a condition that could lead to an emergency medical condition, and "peace officer" as defined in section 53a-3 of the general statutes.

The bill mandates that any person who experiences an emergency medical condition or is medically unstable while in direct contact with or under the custody of a peace officer has the right to emergency medical services. Peace officers are required to immediately request emergency medical services for any person in their custody or control, or in direct contact with them, who communicates or is observed to be experiencing an emergency medical condition or is medically unstable. However, a peace officer is not required to request emergency medical services if they reasonably determine that the person is not experiencing an emergency medical condition or is not medically unstable, and if the person has been seen by a medical professional within the previous 24 hours and was determined not to be in such a condition. The act is effective from October 1, 2023.
