This bill establishes new requirements for school personnel training and emergency care planning related to 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, with biennial training required for those supervising students. The bill also mandates that any training programs align with guidelines from the Epilepsy Foundation of America.

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 and seizure action plans for affected students. These plans must be maintained on file and updated as necessary. The bill limits the requirements for these plans to schools with students diagnosed with epilepsy or currently taking seizure medications. Importantly, it provides liability protections for schools and their employees acting in good faith while assisting students with seizure-related needs.
