NURSE Act aims to boost school nurse staffing in under-resourced schools | National Association of School Nurses posted on the topic | LinkedIn

Despite the essential role that school nurses play in ensuring the safety and well-being of schoolchildren, a growing number of districts do not have enough nurses to meet student needs. Data from the National Association of School Nurses (NASN) found that just 65% of schools had access to a registered nurse (RN), licensed practical nurse (LPN), or licensed vocational nurse. The Nurses for Under-Resourced Schools Everywhere (NURSE) Act was recently reintroduced in an effort to increase healthcare access in education. The legislation aims to establish a federal grant program to help Title I schools where at least 20% of students are enrolled in free- or reduced-price breakfast and lunch programs to hire and retain school nurses. https://ow.ly/rwiP50WGiEz #schoolnurses #NURSEAct #students
