Bill overview
This bill requires all employees working in Michigan schools – including teachers and school nurses – to complete training on recognizing and responding to seizures by 2026-2027. Schools must also maintain seizure action plans for students with epilepsy, detailing medication information and administration procedures. The training and plans must align with guidelines from the Epilepsy Foundation, and schools are permitted to administer seizure medication with parental consent and physician approval. Finally, the bill protects school personnel from liability for actions taken in good faith to comply with these requirements.
