Section 22-4B-2 Legislative intent. The Legislature of Alabama finds that there exists a critical
shortage of registered nurses who are willing and able to provide health care to citizens
in rural areas of Alabama. Such shortage is particularly acute in rural areas, and has a negative
impact on the availability of care to low income and indigent citizens of Alabama who reside
in rural areas. The Legislature further finds that there are many dedicated employees of the
Alabama Department of Public Health who are disqualified from training as registered nurses
solely by reason of their inability to finance the cost of attending school to obtain the
requisite degree. Such employees are also prevented or retarded in career advancement because
of a lack of education. It is the intent of the Legislature in adopting this chapter to address
the nursing shortage in county health departments and in federally-funded community health
centers in rural areas and to provide opportunities for career...
