Public Hearing SB343: Oppose health clinics in schools

OPPOSE

Senate Education Committee
LOB, Room 101

Full text of SB343: https://gencourt.state.nh.us/bill_status/billinfo.aspx?id=1940&inflect=2

Currently, contracted, school based health care clinics do occur, yet apparently there is no current legal authority for this, only for school nurses and physicians to perform various procedures and exams. Parental consent is already required via law. This bill seeks to give legal authority for contracted school health care clinics using money from a federal grant, accepted by the Executive Council. This is part of a larger agenda to create government dependency from cradle to grave, is potentially harmful (2 children last year were vaccinated “accidentally” in schools), and provides no further protections for parental consent.

Schools are for learning reading, writing, and arithmetic and are not meant to become mini health clinics.
