Early prenatal care for moms is vital in helping to prevent preterm births, health issues. But right now, many Texas women are going without. APRNs can help expand healthcare access to women if we remove barriers standing in their way. #WaitingforCareTx #HEALTexans #txlege

Rural Texas needs more healthcare providers—APRNs are stepping up. The HEAL Texans Act, SB 9-1-1, removes barriers so they can do even more. #HEALTexas #txlege

Legislation to remove barriers to Texas APRNs is not about APRNs or scope of practice. It's about patients. It's about getting care to Texans where and when they need it most. It's time, Texas. #txlege #HEALTexans #WaitingforCareTx #SB3055 #HB3794
