House Debates Nursing Instructor Qualifications Bill
Nurses (March 13, 2025) – Today, the House debated House Bill 2392. The legislation facilitates nursing workforce development by setting maximum education levels for instructors at nursing schools as a requirement for state approval. The bill was amended to remove "medical personnel" and clarified that the Kansas State Board of Nursing would oversee it. The committee recommended the bill for passage but later saw a motion to reconsider. The bill has now been re-referred to the House Health and Human Services Committee.
