UNDESIGNATED GLUCAGON-SCHOOLS

Amends the Care of Students with Diabetes Act. Provides that a school may maintain a supply of glucagon medication in any secure location that is accessible before, during, or after school where a student is most at risk, including, but not limited to, a classroom or the nurse's office; defines "glucagon medication" and "undesignated glucagon medication". Provides that a physician, a physician assistant who has prescriptive authority, or an advanced practice registered nurse who has prescriptive authority may prescribe undesignated glucagon medication in the name of the school to be maintained for use when necessary. Allows a delegated care aide to carry undesignated glucagon medication. Provides that within 24 hours after the administration of undesignated glucagon medication, a school must notify the school nurse and the student's parent or guardian or emergency contact, if known, and health care provider of its use. Effective immediately. House Committee Amendment No. 1 Removes the definition of "glucagon medication". Changes the definition of "undesignated glucagon medication" to "undesignated glucagon"; makes conforming changes. Removes a provision allowing a delegated care aide to carry undesignated glucagon on his or her person while in school or at a school-sponsored activity. Allows a school to maintain a supply of glucagon in any secure location that is immediately accessible to a school nurse or delegated care aide (rather than in any secure location that is accessible before, during, or after school where a student is most at risk). Provides that a school nurse or delegated care aide may administer undesignated glucagon if he or she is authorized to administer the undesignated glucagon through a student's diabetes care plan and if the student's prescribed glucagon is not available on-site or has expired. Provides that immediately (rather than within 24 hours) after the administration of undesignated glucagon, a school must notify the school nurse (unless the school nurse was the one administering it) and the student's parent or guardian or emergency contact, if known, and health care provider of its use.
