AI Summary

This bill amends the Public Health Code to modify protocols for medical control authorities regarding emergency medical services, specifically expanding the definition and administration of epinephrine delivery systems. The bill broadens the existing language to include not just epinephrine auto-injectors, but also epinephrine inhalers and nasal sprays, ensuring that life support agencies and emergency medical services personnel are equipped with and trained to use various types of epinephrine delivery methods. The legislation requires medical control authorities to establish protocols that ensure each life support agency providing basic, limited advanced, or advanced life support is equipped with an epinephrine delivery system and that personnel are properly trained to recognize anaphylactic reactions, administer epinephrine, and safely dispose of the delivery system. Additionally, the bill allows medical first response services to meet additional standards for epinephrine equipment and training when traditional life support agencies are not readily available. The bill will only take effect if five related House Bills (5049-5054) are also enacted into law, indicating it is part of a broader legislative package related to emergency medical services.
