Makes conforming changes reflecting the previously authorized scope of practice of nurse practitioners; adds nurse practitioners as persons who can.

The bill amends several laws to reflect the authorized scope of practice of nurse practitioners. It adds nurse practitioners as authorized persons for certain determinations previously limited to physicians. This includes authorizing nurse practitioners to evaluate students for resuming athletic activities after a concussion, to issue exemptions for school bus speed limits, and to certify medical conditions for parking permits. The bill also requires the development of rules and regulations for students with mild traumatic brain injuries and sudden cardiac arrest.
