Provision of opioid antagonist in public schools and independent charters
Under current law, school boards and governing bodies of private schools are required to supply a standard first aid kit for use in an emergency. Also under current law, certain school personnel, including employees and volunteers of public and private schools, are permitted to administer an opioid antagonist on a person who appears to be undergoing an opioid-related drug overdose.
This bill adds that school boards and operators of independent charter schools are required to ensure that each school maintain a usable supply of an opioid antagonist on-site, in a place that is accessible at all times.
For further information see the local fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows:
Section 1
. 118.07 (1) of the statutes is renumbered 118.07 (1) (a).
Section
2. 118.07 (1) (b) of the statutes is created to read:
