Plain-language summary

Beta

This bill would allow schools to keep a supply of glucagon on hand without it being prescribed to a specific student, and would let trained individuals at schools give glucagon to anyone experiencing a severe diabetic emergency. It also protects those who act in good faith when using glucagon in an emergency from being held legally responsible for any resulting harm. Who it may affect: students with diabetes, school staff, and health care practitioners working with schools.
