This bill establishes new requirements for school personnel training and emergency care planning for students with epilepsy or seizure disorders. Starting July 1, 2025, each school district and accredited nonpublic school must ensure that at least one employee is trained to administer or assist with the self-administration of seizure rescue medications and vagus nerve stimulation. Additionally, by December 31, 2026, all school personnel must receive training on recognizing seizure symptoms and providing first aid. The bill also mandates that any training programs align with guidelines from the Epilepsy Foundation of America and allows schools to require further training as needed.

Furthermore, the bill outlines the process for obtaining parental authorization for administering seizure-related medications and requires schools to collaborate with parents and healthcare professionals to develop individual health plans and seizure action plans for affected students. Schools must maintain these plans and authorizations on file and distribute relevant information to staff responsible for student care. Importantly, the bill provides liability protections for schools and their employees acting in good faith while assisting students with seizure disorders, ensuring they are not held liable for injuries or damages related to their actions in compliance with the established plans.
