In plain language
This is a ceremonial resolution passed by the Georgia Senate, not a change to state law. It recognizes Crystal Hardy, who works in long-term and post-acute care, for winning the EDWCM Nurse Case Manager of the Year award through the Georgia health care association's Stars in Long Term Care program. The resolution states that the Senate commends Hardy for her contributions to elderly and disabled Georgians and wishes her continued health and happiness. It directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to her. The resolution creates no new rights, duties, or funding; it is a formal statement of recognition.
