South Dakota schools must now create and implement cardiac emergency response plans that include forming a response team, placing accessible defibrillators on campus, training staff in CPR and defibrillator use, and establishing procedures for sudden cardiac arrest situations. School districts and nonpublic schools must review these plans annually, maintain their defibrillators, and conduct regular drills to practice responding to cardiac emergencies.
The engrossed version narrowed AED placement requirements from "school grounds and at each athletic venue" to just "school grounds" and limited emergency response procedures from "all school-sanctioned or school-sponsored activities" to "school grounds only."
