Diabetes management in schools

This bill aims to improve diabetes management in schools and enhance support for students with type 1 diabetes. The bill allows licensed school school nurses to delegate certain diabetes care responsibilities to trained health aides under specific conditions, while reserving insulin administration for nurses only. The bill also ensures that students with diabetes are placed in classrooms with support staff and can manage their condition appropriately in accordance with medical guidance and state health regulations.
