On Wednesday, April 8th House Bill 1286 was filed in the North Carolina Legislature. The name of the bill tells the story: Christian Science Nursing/Nursing Practice Act.
The bill, if/when passed, provides the authority for Christian Science Nurses to practice in North Carolina. Until now, our nurses have had to practice at their own risk. North Carolina is one of only nine states that do not accommodate the practice of Christian Science Nurses.
We have approximately one month to move this bill through the Health Committee to which it has been assigned. I am asking every ACOM (Assistant Committee on Publication) for branch churches to inform their members immediately and urge them to contact their representative asking for their support of H 1286 or HB 1286.
