Bill > SB00387

This bill requires tour providers to ensure that at least one employee on tours in remote locations is trained in basic life support (BLS). Specifically, the legislation applies to tours that are conducted in areas where emergency first responders cannot reasonably reach within one hour. Basic life support typically refers to medical care that can be provided immediately in emergency situations, such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and addressing choking or severe bleeding. The goal of this bill is to enhance safety for tour participants who may be in isolated or hard-to-reach areas by mandating that someone on the tour has the skills to provide immediate medical assistance in case of a critical health emergency before professional medical help can arrive.
