Requires implementation of health and safety measures in public schools

HB 628 requires Missouri public schools to install automated external defibrillators (AEDs) by the 2026-27 school year and train school personnel in their use. It mandates that all school staff handling AEDs complete initial training before the 2026-27 school year and receive annual refresher training. The bill specifies AEDs must be FDA-approved, capable of automatic data collection, and meet specific protocols for cardiac arrest response (including early CPR and defibrillation). These requirements apply to all public school campuses, including extracurricular events and activities, and school districts must designate personnel to maintain the AED equipment.
