One School, One Nurse Act of 2023
Summary
The One School, One Nurse Act of 2023 (H.R. 305) aims to increase the presence of medical professionals in K-12 schools by providing federal grants to help school districts recruit, hire, and retain full-time school nurses. Under this legislation, the Department of Education would be required to establish recommended nurse-to-student ratios to ensure schools are adequately staffed to meet student health needs. For families and students, the bill’s primary impact would be more consistent access to on-site healthcare, emergency medical response, and chronic condition management during the school day.
