1 AN ACT to renumber 118.07 (1); and to create 118.07 (1) (b) of the statutes;
2 relating to: maintaining a supply of usable opioid antagonist at a school.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, school boards and governing bodies of private schools are
required to supply a standard first aid kit for use in an emergency. Also under
current law, certain school personnel, including employees and volunteers of public
and private schools, are permitted to administer an opioid antagonist on a person
who appears to be undergoing an opioid-related drug overdose.
This bill adds that school boards and governing bodies of private schools are
required to ensure that each school maintain a usable supply of an opioid antagonist
on site, in a place that is accessible at all times.
For further information see the local fiscal estimate, which will be printed as
an appendix to this bill.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
3 SECTION 1. 118.07 (1) of the statutes is renumbered 118.07 (1) (a).
4 SECTION 2. 118.07 (1) (b) of the statutes is created to read:
