SD SB8

Expands South Dakota law to allow schools to stock and administer epinephrine via nasal spray in addition to auto-injectors for emergency anaphylaxis treatment

Authorizes school nurses and designated personnel to administer epinephrine nasal spray to any student experiencing anaphylaxis during school hours, even without a prior prescription or allergy diagnosis

Requires designated school personnel to receive training from a licensed health care professional on recognizing anaphylaxis symptoms and proper administration/storage of both delivery methods

Extends existing liability protections to cover nasal spray administration, shielding school districts, staff, prescribing providers, and trainers from ordinary negligence claims

Requires each school to adopt policies for epinephrine nasal spray use and storage and notify parents of these policies
