  • Creates a new "authorized individual" designation for anyone who completes the required anaphylaxis training program, allowing them to obtain, carry, and administer epinephrine delivery systems

  • Allows the Department of Public Health to issue a statewide standing order for dispensing epinephrine delivery systems to authorized individuals and trained employees of authorized entities

  • Removes the location restriction requiring epinephrine to be administered only "on the property of the authorized entity," now permitting administration anywhere allergens capable of causing anaphylaxis may be present
