How to get it in South Carolina
Two documents: a prescription in your organization's name, and a standing order saying when trained staff may use it.
- Everyone
- South Carolina does not issue a statewide standing order, so a prescriber signs yours. Any physician can, and in most states a nurse practitioner or PA can too.
Free medication, if you are a K-12 school
South Carolina permits nasal spray for undesignated stock use, so neffyinSchools applies here as well as EPIPEN4SCHOOLS. See both programs.
Then the devices
Buy standard auto-injectors through your usual pharmacy or medical supplier, which is what most organizations do.
Every status for South Carolina

Childcare
Permitted[PERMITTED]Daycares named. Auto-injector only on the entity side.
Other public places
Permitted[PERMITTED]Recreation camps, colleges, daycares, places of worship, youth sports leagues, amusement parks, restaurants, workplaces, sports arenas.
