Establishes cardiac emergency response plans and CPR training in Hawaii public schools.
Hawaii HB1178 mandates public schools to create cardiac emergency response plans to address sudden cardiac arrests on school grounds. These plans must include evidence-based standards, training for staff, and the use of automated external defibrillators. The Department of Education will implement a CPR and AED training program for students in grades six through twelve, incorporating it into health or physical education curricula. The training will follow guidelines from the American Heart Association or other nationally recognized programs.
