This bill requires all public buildings to maintain a supply of naloxone, inside the building's first aid kit, if any, and in the same location as the building's automated external defibrillator (AED), if any. The building is required to make all reasonable efforts to notify occupants that there is naloxone on the property, where to find it, and to call emergency personnel if naloxone is administered.
The bill designates the month of October of each year as "Fentanyl Poisoning Awareness Month".
This bill modifies the Drug-Free Schools Program to require the development of education programs about fentanyl use and poisoning for students in grades six through 12.
Prior to January 1, 2028, the bill requires every law enforcement agency in the state to participate in training provided through the POST program's Operation Overdose (OD) Justice Initiative.
This bill requires any drug-related death to be fully investigated by the law enforcement agency with jurisdiction, regardless of whether criminal charges have been filed. Drug- related deaths must be treated by the law enforcement agency in the same manner as a homicide crime scene.
