Relating to the self-administration of prescription anti-seizure medicine by a student at a public school.
HB 1807 allows students with seizure disorders at Texas public schools to self-administer their prescribed anti-seizure medication under specific conditions. To qualify, students must demonstrate to their doctor and school nurse that they can safely use the medication, and their parent must provide written authorization along with a physician's statement detailing the medication's purpose, dosage, timing, and duration. The bill amends Texas Education Code sections 38.015 and 38.032 to establish these requirements, ensuring students can manage their condition during school hours or school activities. It directly affects students with seizure disorders who meet the verification and documentation criteria.
