Alabama SB110 allows certified nurse practitioners and midwives to endorse physicals for K-12 school athletics, prohibiting schools from joining.

Alabama SB110 amends existing law to deem the endorsement of a certified registered nurse practitioner or certified nurse midwife on a physical examination form for K-12 school athletics as the endorsement of a physician. This change applies to various physicals, including those for Special Olympics, TSA employees, adoptive parents, college or trade school, Boy Scouts, and Girl Scouts. The bill also prohibits public K-12 schools from being members of athletic associations that refuse to accept these endorsed physicals.
