Bill Summary
Requires a school nurse to be on the premises during school hours in any school having an enrollment of 100 pupils or more.
AI Summary
This bill requires a registered professional nurse to be on the premises during school hours in any school with an enrollment of 100 or more pupils. This is an amendment to the existing education law in New York, which previously allowed school boards to employ school nurses but did not mandate their presence during school hours. The bill aims to ensure that schools with a significant student population have a designated healthcare professional available on-site to provide necessary medical care and health instruction.
