Requires school districts to provide instruction on bleed control as part of implementation of New Jersey Student Learning Standards in Comprehensive Health and Physical Education.
New Jersey Assembly Bill 5449 requires school districts that include grades nine through twelve to add bleed control instruction to their health curriculum as part of the state's comprehensive health and physical education standards. The bill allows boards of education to fulfill this requirement by selecting a free, non-certification instructional program. This mandate would take effect immediately but would first apply during the first full school year following the date of enactment.
