The "Firefighter and Emergency Service Provider Peer Support Act" establishes a framework for state, local, and regional public fire agencies to create peer support programs aimed at assisting emergency service providers dealing with behavioral health issues. The bill defines key terms such as "confidential communication," "critical incident stress," and "peer support services," and mandates that each peer support team member must complete a training course approved by the state fire marshal's office. The training will cover various topics, including substance abuse, critical incident stress, and workplace issues.

Additionally, the bill ensures that all communications between emergency service providers and peer support team members are confidential, with specific exceptions for disclosure to prevent harm or as required by court order. It also limits the liability of peer support team members and their employing public fire agencies for damages related to the provision of peer support services, except in cases of medical malpractice. This legislation aims to provide a supportive environment for emergency service providers while protecting their privacy and reducing legal risks associated with peer support activities.
