FL S0120

Public schools may purchase naloxone (opioid antagonist) from wholesale distributors or arrange to receive it at fair-market, free, or reduced prices for use in student opioid overdose emergencies.

Naloxone must be stored in a secure location on school premises and administered according to a protocol developed by a licensed physician.

School personnel administering naloxone must be trained to recognize opioid overdoses and follow the established protocol.

School districts, their employees and agents, and the physician providing the protocol are immune from liability for naloxone administration injuries, except in cases of willful and wanton conduct.

Liability immunity applies regardless of whether parents were notified, signed consent forms, or whether the student's physician authorized treatment.
