Bill > S2867

This bill requires school nurses, in collaboration with parents or guardians, to create an individualized seizure action plan for each student with an active seizure disorder diagnosis. The plan must address the specific healthcare needs of students with seizure disorders, with potential guidelines to be developed by the Department of Public Health. The seizure action plan may include provisions for school nurses or other school personnel to be trained in administering rescue seizure medication, with parental agreement. The completed plan must be filed in the school nurse's or school administrator's office and distributed to any school personnel or volunteers responsible for supervising or caring for the student. This legislation aims to ensure that students with seizure disorders receive appropriate medical support and care while at school, creating a comprehensive and personalized approach to managing their health needs in an educational setting.
