JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. -- All but one of the state's counties are in a health professional shortage, and that's why nurse practitioners are asking lawmakers to change state law to help combat this deficit. Under current state law, advanced practice registered nurses (APRN) are required to in be in a collaborative practice agreement, which means nurse practitioners have a physician nearby to do their job. Nurses came to Jefferson City on Wednesday to tell lawmakers that if this restriction is lifted, patients will have better access to care. "When a physician dies, moves or goes on vacation, those practitioners, they don't have a backup collaborative physician, those clinics are dead," JoAnn Franklin a nurse practitioner from Reynolds County said. "They have to close down."

The first bite? Carter Mazur hated it. Lose in the NCHC Frozen Faceoff semis. Kiss another trophy goodbye.Then he remembered the aftertaste. And how sweet it felt at this time a year ago.“Yeah, I feel like it’s the exact same (vibe) as last (March),” Mazur, the DU Pioneers’ top goal-scorer, said earlier this week at Magness Arena in advance of the 30-9 Pios’ first test in the NCAA men’s hockey regionals, Thursday at 3:30 p.m. against Cornell (20-10-2).“It’s kind of a blessing in disguise really. (We) get extra rest because of it, but it does (stink) to lose the trophy. But we’re kind of focused on the big goal — win the national championship. So it’s nice to have that bitter taste in your mouth heading into these (regional) games.”DU will be looking to rebound from a 1-0 upset loss back on March 17 to rival Colorado College in the NCHC semis. The Pios suffered the same fate at Frozen Faceoff in March 2022, then rode that taste all the way to the program’s nin...Rockies spring training report: Bud Black thrilled with WBC, Kyle Freeland’s performance
