NCC Statement for the Record to the House Veterans’ Affairs Subcommittee on Health
On September 18, forty-seven members of the Nursing Community Coalition (NCC) sent a statement for record for the House Veterans’ Affairs Subcommittee on Health hearing on, “VA’s Federal Supremacy Initiative: Putting Veterans First?” The NCC urged support for removing barriers to practice and allowing for Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs) to practice to the full extent of their education and abilities within the VA.
