These policies must authorize trained school employees to administer epinephrine to students with prescriptions on file. The policies must also ensure that each school has at least two trained employees and at least two epinephrine auto-injectors available. The bill mandates annual reporting on epinephrine administrations and allows for state reimbursement for compliance costs.
