How do nurses practicing in NLC states obtain ongoing access to practice-related information, including current board of nursing policies?
Nurses should have access to this information through the board of nursing in their residency/licensure state. The NLC does not interfere with this procedure. Making current and timely information regarding nursing practice available to nurses is an ongoing challenge. Many boards utilize technology to maintain Web sites and post practice-related information, including board policies. Boards of nursing also utilize newsletters and other communication activities. Members of the NLCA have committed to making practice-related information readily available on their state Web sites and would welcome input on how to improve this information-sharing process.
