As noted by News Service of Florida’s “Ten Big Issues to Watch During the 2020 Session,” revamping the health care industry under House Speaker Jose Oliva remains a priority. This was evident on opening day, when Speaker Oliva announced there’d be a Nurse Practitioner of the Day throughout session.
On day one, Dr. Doreen Cassarino, a family nurse practitioner from Naples, was recognized for her service of providing primary and specialty diabetes care.
While there’re a number of issues important to Florida families on the table, I thank Speaker Oliva for his commitment to health care in the Sunshine State.
