Comments
RNs do not do medical diagnoses. On Page 14, lines 15 & 16 - "or registered nurse described under 16s. 255.06 (1) (f) 1" - should be removed as it will have unintended consequences that impact students, their families and the school community.

Comments
While physician-led team-based care is the gold standard for quality care and this bill moves away from that, the compromise helps with some of our concerns regarding experience, pain management, and Truth in Advertising protections.
