HB4788

SCH CD-CPR-FEMALE MANIKINS

Final Passage·5/20/26

Illinois HB4788 mandates secondary schools to include CPR training with at least one female manikin for every two male manikins starting in 2028.

HB4788 amends the Illinois School Code to require secondary schools to incorporate cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training in their curriculum, aligning with American Red Cross or American Heart Association standards. Starting from the 2028-2029 school year, CPR training must include a minimum of one female manikin for every two male manikins, or chest covers for existing manikins. This ensures both male and female manikins are present during practice or instruction.
