INDIANAPOLIS - As we saw during the pandemic, Indiana's healthcare professionals, including our nurses, are an important part of our society. But even before the pandemic, Indiana was facing a nursing shortage. Indiana must work to address this shortage in order to make sure Hoosiers are able to have proper health care available to them.

As always, feel free to contact my office with your questions and concerns by email at [Senator.Raatz@iga.in.gov]Senator.Raatz@iga.in.gov or by phone at 317-233-0930.
