This bill allows school bus drivers to administer epinephrine to students experiencing anaphylaxis in emergency situations, provided certain conditions are met. These conditions include obtaining written authorization from the student's parent or guardian, securing written orders from a physician or advanced practice nurse confirming the need for epinephrine, and ensuring that the school district or nonpublic school informs parents or guardians that they, along with the school bus driver and contractor, will not be held liable for any injuries resulting from the administration of epinephrine. Additionally, parents or guardians must sign a statement acknowledging this liability waiver and agree to indemnify the school and its employees against any claims. The school bus driver must also volunteer for this role and receive proper training in administering epinephrine via a pre-filled auto-injector mechanism.

The bill emphasizes that the written permission from parents or guardians is valid for the entire school year and can be renewed annually. It also clarifies that nothing in this section prevents a school bus driver from administering epinephrine to a student who is authorized to self-administer it. Furthermore, it states that no school bus driver, school district, nonpublic school, or contractor will be liable for good faith actions taken in accordance with this law, excluding cases of willful misconduct, gross negligence, or recklessness. The State Board of Education is tasked with creating regulations to implement the provisions of this act, which will take effect immediately and apply to the first full school year following its enactment.
