SB 596 (Menjivar, D-Van Nuys) Details

Passed the Assembly Health Committee on July 15. To be heard in the Assembly Appropriations Committee.

SB 596 was recently amended to redefine a hospital’s on-call list from containing at least 10% of the hospital’s registered nurse staff to instead including nurses who were either scheduled to be on call for the shift and unit where an alleged violation occurred or assigned to regularly scheduled float pool shifts.
