HB310

Hawaii HB310 mandates public schools to stock opioid antagonists and train employees on their use.

Hawaii HB310 requires all public schools, including charter schools, to maintain a stock supply of opioid antagonists, such as naloxone, for emergency use. The bill mandates training for school employees on administering these antagonists, including recognizing overdose signs and proper response procedures. It also requires schools to inform parents and guardians about the potential use of these antagonists in emergencies and to make the protocol available upon request. Authorized employees who administer these antagonists receive immunity similar to healthcare professionals.
