- Title 70
A. A school district board of education may elect to stock
glucagon to treat a student with diabetes who experiences a
hypoglycemic emergency or if the student’s prescribed glucagon is
not available on site or has expired. A board of education that
elects to stock glucagon shall adopt a policy that requires:
1. The school district to inform, in writing, the parent or
legal guardian of each student who has a diabetes medical management
plan pursuant to Section 1210.196.3 of Title 70 of the Oklahoma
Statutes that a school nurse, a school employee trained by a health
care professional, or a volunteer diabetes care assistant, as
defined by Section 1210.196.2 of Title 70 of the Oklahoma Statutes,
may administer, with parent or legal guardian written consent but
without a health care provider order, glucagon to a student with
diabetes whom the school nurse, trained employee, or volunteer
diabetes care assistant in good faith believes is having a
hypoglycemic emergency or if the student’s prescribed glucagon is
not available on site or has expired;
2. A waiver of liability executed by a parent or legal guardian
be on file with the school district prior to administration of
glucagon; and
3. The school district to designate the employee responsible
for obtaining the glucagon at each school site.
B. Written consent and a waiver of liability executed pursuant
to subsection A of this section shall be effective for the school
year for which it is granted and shall be renewed each subsequent
school year.
C. A licensed physician who has prescriptive authority may
write a prescription for glucagon to a school district in the name
of the district as a body corporate specified in Section 5-105 of
Title 70 of the Oklahoma Statutes, which shall be maintained at each
school site in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
Provided, however, that nothing in this section shall be construed
as creating or imposing a duty on a school district to maintain
glucagon at a school site or sites.
D. In the event a student is believed to be having a
hypoglycemic emergency, a school employee shall contact 911 and
shall contact the student’s parent or legal guardian as soon as
possible.
