Marrow Promotes Nurse Practitioners
Friday, September 18, 2009
HARRISONBURG - Trained and licensed nurse practitioners should have more autonomy to provide primary care in rural Virginia, according to Greg Marrow, Democratic candidate in the 25th House District.
An optometrist, Marrow said Thursday that some people travel long distances to see doctors when licensed professionals could be treating patients for routine medical care closer to where they live.
Marrow, who is challenging Del. Steve Landes, R-Weyers Cave, wants to change the state’s laws to allow nurse practitioners greater flexibility to meet a projected shortage of doctors.
