Illinois Statutes Chapter 105. Schools § 150/15. Seizure action plan

(a) For a student with epilepsy, a seizure action plan shall serve as the basis of the student's federal Section 504 plan and must be signed by the student's parent or guardian if the student seeks assistance with epilepsy-related care in a school setting. If the student has been managing his or her epilepsy care in a school setting before the effective date of this Act, the student's parent or guardian may sign and submit a seizure action plan with the student's school. It is the responsibility of the student's parent or guardian to share the health care provider's instructions on the student's epilepsy management during the school day, including a copy of any prescriptions and the methods of administering those prescriptions.

(b) The services and accommodations specified in a seizure action plan must be reasonable, reflect the current best practice guidelines of seizure-management care, and include appropriate safeguards to ensure the proper disposal of used equipment and medication.

(c) A seizure action plan must be submitted to the student's school (i) at the beginning of the school year, (ii) upon enrollment, as soon practicable following the student's diagnosis, or (iii) when a student's care needs change during the school year. A student's parent or guardian is responsible for informing the school, in a timely manner, of any changes to the student's seizure action plan and emergency contact information.
