Allows advance practice registered nurses to claim exemption from jury duty in Hawaii.
This bill amends Hawaii law to allow advance practice registered nurses (APRNs) to claim exemption from jury duty. Previously, only physicians and dentists could be exempt. The bill recognizes that removing APRNs from their practices can deprive patients of care and cause financial hardship to APRNs who own their own practices. The exemption applies to APRNs who provide primary and specialist care to various populations in the state.
