SEIU nurses leading the way, again!
SEIU Nurse Practitioners teaming up with their Registered Nurse colleagues helped pass the landmark legislation, AB 890 (Woods) that allows Nurse Practitioners to work without standardized procedures or physician supervision in defined healthcare settings after completing a transition to practice.
Beginning January 1, 2023, authorizes a certified NP to practice independently outside of a defined healthcare setting after completing 3 years in those settings with independent practice.
It took a few tries, but nurses make the best, most relentless advocates! This time for themselves in order to better serve our under-served communities that often lack primary care providers. This will open up access to care in low income communities that are too often also communities of color.
SEIU is dedicated to looking at every issue, solving every problem through a racial justice lens. Now, more than ever that has to be our top priority.
The Nurse Alliance of SEIU California, is honored to have been a part of the passage of AB 890 and now to be working with our Nurse Practitioners, the Board of Registered Nursing and allies in developing the necessary regulatory changes that will allow our California Nurse Practitioners to finally be able to work with full practice authority!
