AN ACT REQUIRING SCHOOLS, CHILD CARE FACILITIES AND EMERGENCY RESPONSE VEHICLES TO BE EQUIPPED WITH A PORTABLE AIRWAY CLEARANCE DEVICE.

SB 840 requires all public and private schools, child care facilities, and emergency response vehicles (like ambulances) to have a portable airway clearance device on hand. These devices help clear airways during choking emergencies or respiratory distress. The bill mandates this equipment be available at every covered location, directly affecting schools, child care providers, and emergency medical services. It focuses on ensuring immediate access to life-saving tools during medical crises without specifying device types or enforcement details.
