Include certain hospital and health clinic employees within statutes protecting health care professionals from assault

Summary

The bill changes the legal definition of “health care professional” to also cover any employee of a hospital or health clinic. This would give those workers the same assault‑related legal protections that currently apply to doctors and other licensed practitioners. The goal is to improve safety for all staff who work in health‑care facilities.
