A BILL
To enact section 5.2235 of the Revised Code to
designate the month of May as "Nurses Month."
BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF OHIO:
Section 1. That section 5.2235 of the Revised Code be enacted
to read as follows:
Sec. 5.2235. The month of May is designated as "Nurses Month"
in recognition of the hard work and dedication of nurses and their
significant contributions in improving the health care of the
citizens of this state.
Section 2. In enacting section 5.2235 of the Revised Code, it
is the intent of the General Assembly to acknowledge and celebrate
the nurses of this state. Although nurses practice their
profession in a wide variety of settings, including hospitals,
nursing homes, other health care facilities, physician's offices,
schools, and even private homes, the contributions made by the
nursing profession in the improvement of the health care system
are sometimes overlooked. Therefore, the members of the 127th
General Assembly feel that it is vitally important that a month be
formally designated as "Nurses Month" for the purpose of
increasing public awareness of the role nurses play in the health
and well-being of all Ohioans.
