This is BIG! Please Act Now! PA Senate Bill 1332 Can Positively Impact School Nurses

Posted over 4 years ago by Mary louise Neyhart

Pennsylvania Senate Bill 1332

Please act now! 

The legislative session will be ending very soon as elections approach and everyone goes home.

Contact your state representative to support SB 1332. Senator Dinniman from District 19 (part of Chester Co.) has introduced a bill that would increase the number of CSNs as well as supplemental nursing staff during the 2020-21 school year as a response to COVID-19 and the safety and health of students as schools reopen. $38 million has been appropriated for COVID-19 response and schools would be reimbursed using this fund.
