Bill overview
California Assembly Bill 369 creates a legal protection for individuals who administer anti-seizure rescue medication to someone experiencing a seizure in an emergency situation, even if they are not licensed to do so. The bill aims to encourage bystander intervention by shielding these individuals from liability, provided their actions are not grossly negligent or intentionally harmful. It specifically excludes school-related administrations, which must adhere to existing education codes. This legislation expands upon previous protections for administering opioid antagonists in overdose situations.
