Time is running out to make sure America's veterans receive the best care possible.
The Department of Veterans Affairs is still collecting public comments on a new rule granting direct access to APRNs in the VA health system. But you only have until Monday to speak out!
It's hard to believe that some people are actually against this proposal, but they are submitting their own comments every day. Their claim? Allowing nurses to practice to the full extent of their training is dangerous for veterans' health.
This is a chronic problem in facilities across the VA – and with this proposal, we can finally begin to close the gap between the care we can provide, and the care these heroes deserve.
This is our last chance. The nursing community needs to deliver as many comments as possible in support of this proposal before the VA's deadline on Monday.
