Utah law currently spreads out the rules for administering emergency medications in schools—such as epinephrine for allergic reactions, glucagon for diabetic emergencies, stock albuterol for asthma attacks, and rescue medications for seizures and adrenal crises—across both the health code and the public education code. This bill would reorganize and consolidate those provisions entirely within the health code, renumbering several sections (including moving school medication rules currently found in Title 53G into Title 26B) and folding some separate sections directly into related ones, such as combining glucagon-related definitions and rules into a single section. It also adds a definition for "local education agency" and makes other technical and cross-reference updates to keep the law consistent after the reorganization. The substantive rules already in place—covering who may be trained to administer these medications, when schools must make them available, parental and health care provider consent requirements, and liability protections for staff who administer them in good faith—would remain largely the same, just consolidated into fewer, more organized sections of law.
