Existing law requires the governing board of a school district to cooperate with the local health officer in measures necessary for the prevention and control of communicable diseases in schoolage children, and authorizes the board to permit a licensed physician and surgeon or a licensed registered nurse acting under the direction of a supervising physician and surgeon to administer an immunizing agent to a pupil whose parents have consented, as specified. This bill would also authorize a school district to permit certain other licensed health care practitioners who are acting under the direction of a supervising physician and surgeon to administer certain immunizing agents to those pupils. The bill would authorize those health care practitioners to administer immunizing agents subject to specified conditions, including notification of the school nurse, who would maintain control as necessary in accordance with his or her duties as supervisor of health. The bill would make other technical changes. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
