The APRN Council of Coastal Georgia

Hello APRNCCG members!

I apologize for the short notice - Tomorrow, July 25, 2023 from 10:00 am - 12:00pm the Georgia Senate Study Committee on Expanding Georgia's Workforce will be meeting and will be 

Address: 

906 Drayton Street, Savannah, GA 31401
Robin Pingeton, Nancy Hurlock, and Julianna McConnell of the UAPRN will be present to represent APRNs in Georgia and would appreciate it if any local APRNs are able to attend and perhaps speak. They plan to arrive at 9:20am to get good seats. The primary focus is expanding Georgia's workforce and in particular they are looking at different committees and processes, including the process APRNs are required to do with our nurse protocols. If you have any experience or hardship with these protocols - such as delays in approval that has also lead to a delay in other aspects of providing care, including DEA licensure - please let us know or please take a little time to speak tomorrow morning.
If you are able to make it, please let me know and I'll be happy to help coordinate with the UAPRN representatives!
Thank you,
~Christen
