LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGESTAB 24, as introduced, Haney. Emergency response: opioid antagonist kits.Existing law creates the State Department of Public Health and vests it with duties, powers, functions, jurisdiction, and responsibilities with regard to the advancement of public health. Existing law requires the department, subject to an appropriation in the Budget Act of 2016, to award funding to local health departments, local governmental agencies, or on a competitive basis to other organizations, as specified, to support or establish programs that provide naloxone to first responders and to at-risk opioid users through programs that serve at-risk drug users. Existing law exempts from civil liability any person who, in good faith and not for compensation, renders emergency medical or nonmedical care or assistance at the scene of an emergency other than an act or omission constituting gross negligence or willful or wanton misconduct. This bill would require a person or entity that owns, manages, or is responsible for a bar, gas station, public library, or single-room occupancy hotel in a county that is experiencing an opioid overdose crisis, as defined, to acquire and post an opioid antagonist kit, which includes an instructional poster and opioid antagonist nasal spray, in areas that are readily accessible only by employees, including, but not limited to, a break room, and to restock the opioid antagonist kit after each use. The bill would apply the provisions governing civil liability described above to a person or entity that acquires and posts the opioid antagonist kit. Upon appropriation by the Legislature, the bill would require the department to provide opioid antagonist kits free of charge, to create the opioid antagonist poster with easy-to-understand instructions and graphics on the administration of the attached opioid antagonist nasal spray, and to make the determination on how best to allocate and distribute its limited supply of opioid antagonist among its various programs in the event of an opioid antagonist supply shortage. The bill would make a violation of these provisions a misdemeanor punishable by a fine of not more than $1,000, by imprisonment in jail for 6 months, or both.By creating a new crime and requiring public libraries to provide opioid antagonist kits, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.This bill would provide that with regard to certain mandates no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.With regard to any other mandates, this bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs so mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to the statutory provisions noted above.Digest Key Vote: MAJORITY Appropriation: NO Fiscal Committee: YES Local Program: YES Bill TextThe people of the State of California do enact as follows:SECTION 1.
