AI Summary

This bill requires all public and semi-public athletic recreation facilities in Massachusetts to have a written medical emergency response plan, practice the response sequence with employees annually, and review the plan with local fire and police officials at least once per year. The plan must include specific elements such as a rapid communication system, emergency response times, contact information, and the location and use of any automated external defibrillators. Facilities must also provide a working landline telephone as part of the communication system. Failure to comply with these provisions can result in a fine of up to $1,000. The requirements apply to facilities constructed on or after the effective date of the law, as well as existing facilities one year after the law takes effect.
