HB 1084 Pennsylvania House · 2023-2024 Regular Session

An Act amending the act of March 10, 1949 (P.L.30, No.14), known as the Public School Code of 1949, in school health services, providing for school access to bronchodilators.

This bill modifies Pennsylvania's Public School Code to require schools to maintain a supply of bronchodilators for students with asthma. It changes the rules so that these medications can be administered by designated individuals rather than just school nurses or trained staff. The legislation also mandates that if a school uses a reporting system, it must record who gave the medication to the student. These changes aim to improve access to emergency asthma treatment within school settings.
