In enacting this section, it is the intent of the general assembly to
acknowledge and celebrate the nurses of this state. Although nurses practice
their profession in a wide variety of settings, including hospitals, nursing
homes, other health care facilities, physician's offices, schools, and even
private homes, the contributions made by the nursing profession in the
improvement of the health care system are sometimes overlooked. Therefore, the

awareness of the role nurses play in the health and well-being of all Ohioans.

It is the intent of the general assembly in enacting this section to
increase public awareness and understanding of brain aneurysms. The general
assembly feels that it is vitally important that the state designate September
as "Brain Aneurysm Awareness Month." According to the brain aneurysm
foundation, brain aneurysms afflict approximately two per cent of Americans,
most commonly those aged thirty-five to sixty years. The state encourages and

enhance funding for aneurysm research, provide educational materials and
programs, and create a support network for patients, survivors, and their

Sec. 5.2260. The month of
November is designated as "Epilepsy Awareness Month" to increase
public awareness and understanding of epilepsy.
It is the intent of the general assembly in enacting this section to
increase public awareness and understanding of epilepsy. The general assembly
considers it vitally important that the state join with the epilepsy foundation
in formally designating November as "Epilepsy Awareness Month."
According to the United States centers for disease control and prevention
(CDC), epilepsy currently affects approximately 2.7 million Americans - roughly
one of every one hundred individuals - with as many as 180,000 new cases
diagnosed each year. Epilepsy afflicts people of all ages, but especially the

November is designated as "Omega Psi Phi
Month."
Sec. 5.2262. The
