Existing law establishes the Department of Health Care Access and Information (HCAI) in the California Health and Human Services Agency for the promotion of education and training of health professionals to address workforce shortage and distribution needs. Existing law establishes the Board of Registered Nursing within the Department of Consumer Affairs for the licensure and regulation of the practice of nursing. Existing law provides for the licensure and regulation of health facilities and clinics, as defined, by the State Department of Public Health. This bill would require a health facility or clinic, upon the request of a California community college or California State University with an approved school of nursing or approved nursing program, to meet with the California community college or California State University and work in good faith to meet the needs of the prelicensure nursing clinical placement needs of the California community college or California State University program, including adding additional clinical placement slots to accommodate the nursing program. The bill would require the health facility or clinic, following that meeting, to inform the department if it cannot provide additional placement slots, as specified, no later than the following January 30, and annually on or before each January 30 thereafter. The bill would require the health facility or clinic to inform the department as to the reason it cannot meet the needs of the California community college or California State University for each type of clinical rotation requested, such as obstetrics and pediatrics, among others. The bill would subject the health facility or clinic to an administrative penalty not to exceed $1,000 for failure to provide the information, as required. The bill would require the department to post the information on its internet website. The bill would repeal those provisions on January 1, 2032.
