A 2262 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires each school district to have certified school nurse at each school building in district.

This bill requires every public school building in a New Jersey school district to have at least one certified school nurse. Currently, districts must employ certified school nurses but are not required to have one at each building. The bill allows districts to supplement certified nurses with non-certified nurses, provided the non-certified nurses work in the same building or school complex. It maintains existing rules for medically fragile students, requiring specialized care from approved providers chosen by parents without increasing district costs.
