MODERATE

This bill revision expands the scope of vaccines that nursing students can administer and clarifies reporting requirements. The changes shift from a specific list of vaccines to a broader regulatory framework, while also updating patient consent language and age thresholds for reporting.

Scope change

The bill now allows nursing students to administer additional vaccines beyond the original specific list, using regulatory standards instead of an exhaustive enumeration.

ELIGIBILITY

Vaccine list changed from specific diseases to a regulatory standard that references national medical organizations for determining which vaccines nursing students can administer.

REQUIREMENT

Patient consent language changed from 'vaccinee' to 'patient' for reporting requirements, and age threshold for reporting changed from 19 to 18 years or older.

Added language requiring immunizations to follow generally accepted medical standards and recommendations from major medical organizations.

TECHNICAL
