House greets Mississippi Board of Nursing and visiting nurse practitioners
Summary
Members of the Mississippi Board of Nursing, led by Dr. Phyllis Johnson, and nurse practitioner association attendees and nursing students were recognized from the galleries. Several representatives introduced constituents and student groups for public acknowledgement.
Representative Scoggins asked members to welcome the Mississippi Board of Nursing, saying, "In the North Gallery, if y'all would help me welcome the Mississippi Board of Nursing under the direction of doctor Phyllis Johnson and also a group of Mississippi Nurse Practitioner Association folks." Dr. Phyllis Johnson was named as the Board's leader in the floor recognition.
Separately, multiple representatives introduced constituents and nursing students — including Beverly Oliver, Carolyn Coleman (a nurse practitioner identified by a member), Marybeth Griffin with students from Mississippi College, and Tiffany Dearman — and asked the House to recognize them in the galleries. Those recognitions were ceremonial and no legislative action accompanied them.
