Massachusetts H4641 mandates seizure-safe protocols in schools for students with seizure disorders.

Massachusetts H4641, known as the Seizure-Safe Schools Act, requires public and private schools to ensure at least one employee is trained to administer seizure medications and vagus nerve stimulation. Schools must provide training to relevant personnel on recognizing seizures and administering first aid. The act mandates the creation of individualized seizure action plans for students with seizure disorders, developed in collaboration with the Epilepsy Foundation of America. These plans must be kept on file in the school nurse's or administrator's office.
