AI Summary
This bill amends Chapter 111 of the Massachusetts law to require that all acute-care hospitals have a registered nurse with a current, unencumbered license from the Board of Registration in Nursing as a sitting and voting member of the governing entity responsible for developing the organization's strategic plan, structure, systems, policies, and programs.
