Senator Aguilar introduced Senate Bill 17-033, concerning the authority of a professional nurse to delegate dispensing authority for over-the-counter medications. The bill allows a nurse to delegate to another person, after appropriate training, the dispensing authority of an over-the-counter medication to a minor with the signed consent of the minor's parent or guardian. It also allows nurse practitioners to delegate medical functions to a professional nurse or practical nurse, consistent with the medical plan prescribed by a physician, podiatrist, or dentist. She provided a handout to the committee (Attachment A) and responded to questions from the committee.
