i know this thread is long, but please read (if you have a moment). :bowingpur
1). i have an assignment for one of my family nurse practitioner classes, healthcare policy, that i need assistance with.
[color=#5f497a](please, anyone that can help, it will be greatly appreciated)!
2). i would love for rn’s/lpn’s in the state of tennessee to help me with this, but i also need feedback from nurses in [color=#943634]all other states who have personal experience in this area.
3). i posted a thread in the “tennessee nurses” section titled: tn nurses against proposed bill (sb 0009) for "certified medication technicians"….the link is : https://allnurses.com/tennessee-nurses/tn-nurses-against-367538.html . here you will find a great deal of information regarding this bill.
4). i have to personally write a letter to senator diane black (by march 15thish) explaining the reasons that i do not agree/support this bill.
5). on april 7th i have to go to nashville for “capitol hill day” to speak with different people in legislature regarding this bill. most of the people that i will be speaking with will be members of the “senate standing committee general welfare, health & human resources.” if you are not familiar with their role, here is a link to give a bit of info: http://www.capitol.tn.gov/senate/committees/gen-welfare.html
6). if you are from tennessee, i beg you to write to me regarding your standpoint on this issue. if you are from a state who has tried this method through a “pilot program” or if your state currently uses “certified medication technicians” i would love for you to send me any information (pro’s or con’s) on this topic.
7).i also hope that you will go to my tn nurses against proposed bill (sb 0009) for "certified medication technicians" https://allnurses.com/tennessee-nurses/tn-nurses-against-367538.html link to discuss this.
8). i will respond to each and every private message that i get as well as every post to my tn nurses against proposed bill (sb 0009) for "certified medication technicians" link. it may take me a few days, since i have several other classes to work on as well
thank you so much for your time, i do appreciate any comments or suggestions you may have!!!
