AI Summary

This bill amends the current law to allow school nurses or school physicians to delegate the authority to administer glucose monitoring tests and insulin delivery systems to other school personnel or responsible adults, in cases where a student is unable to self-administer these procedures. The bill also permits the administration of these tests and systems in a classroom setting if the school nurse or physician, in consultation with the relevant teacher, deems it appropriate. This change aims to provide more flexibility and support for the management of diabetes among students in schools.
