CaliforniaPupil health: emergency stock albuterol inhalers.
What it does
Existing law authorizes a school district, county office of education, or charter school to provide emergency stock albuterol inhalers, as specified, to school nurses or trained personnel who have volunteered, and authorizes school nurses or trained personnel to use an emergency stock albuterol inhaler to provide emergency medical aid to persons suffering, or reasonably believed to be suffering, from respiratory distress, as provided. Existing law authorizes a prescription for emergency stock albuterol inhalers to be filled by local or mail order pharmacies or stock albuterol inhaler manufacturers.
More detail
This bill would revise and recast that latter provision by making its provisions also apply to a childcare program, as defined, that is operated by or contracts with a school district, county office of education, or charter school, as provided. This bill would explicitly authorize a pharmacy to furnish stock albuterol inhalers to a local educational agency pursuant to a written order from an authorized prescriber. The bill would authorize a prescription for emergency stock albuterol inhalers also to be filled by stock albuterol wholesalers or distributers.
The bill, for purposes of these provisions, would change references from the Superintendent of Public Instruction to the Education Commissioner in order to implement changes made by AB 181 of the 2025–26 Regular Session.
