HB 350 aims to enable the use of glucagon medication for students experiencing hypoglycemia on both public and private school campuses in Texas. This bill amends Section 168 of the Health and Safety Code, expanding the definition of "school" to include private institutions and authorizing school nurses and unlicensed diabetes care assistants to administer glucagon. It permits schools to maintain, administer, and dispose of glucagon medication but prohibits mandatory purchases of glucagon or additional fiscal burdens on schools due to this policy.
