Rhode Island to Join the Nurse Licensure Compact
The National Council of State Boards of Nursing announced that Rhode Island recently passed legislation to join the Nurse Licensure Compact, and the state will begin the rule writing process to work toward implementation of the NLC in 2008. Under the NLC, nurses can have one license in their state of residency and can practice in the other NLC states as long as they follow the state's nursing practice act for where the care is provided. There are already 22 states participating in the NLC - Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Delaware, Idaho, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Mississippi, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Carolina, North Dakota, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, and Wisconsin.
