INTRODUCTION
Nurse licensure is the process by which various regulatory bodies,
usually a Board of Nursing, regulate the practice of nursing within its
jurisdiction. The primary purpose of nurse licensure is to grant
permission to practice as a nurse after verifying the applicant has met
minimal competencies to safely perform nursing activities within
nursing scope of practice. Licensure is necessary when the regulated
activities are complex, require specialized knowledge and skill and
independent decision making.
DEFINITION (NURSING)
According to Florence Nightingale,
“Nursing is defined as utilizing the patient's environment to improve their conditions and assist in their
recovery. ”
According to WHO,
“Nursing encompasses autonomous and collaborative care of individuals of all ages, families, groups and
communities, sick or well and in all settings.”
According to American Nurses Association
”Nursing is the protection, promotion, and optimization. of health and abilities, prevention of illness and
injury, facilitation of healing, alleviation of suffering through the diagnosis and treatment of human
response, and advocacy in the care of individuals, families, groups, communities, and populations. ”

bodies, usually a Board of Nursing, regulate the practice of
nursing within its jurisdiction.”

CURRENT
LICENSURE
CURRENT LICENSURE ACTIVITIES
Efforts to provide common definitions of nursing practice, standards of education, and testing
for entry into practice across state boundaries have been successful, although nurses are still
required to apply for licensure in each state in which they practice. With the mobility of nurses,
the movement toward telecommunications, and care of clients across wide distances, state
boards of nursing recognized the need to provide practicing nurses with more than procedures of
endorsement of their initial license. This need has led to further changes in nursing licensure. In
1997, the Delegate Assembly of the National council ofstate Boards of Nursing moved to a new
level of nursing regulation. The assembly approved a resolution endorsing a mutual recognition
model of nursing regulation. Through this model individual state boards will develop an
interstate compact allowing nurses licensed in one state to practice in all other states and
territories. Nurses will be responsible for following the laws and regulations of those states,
although they will not be required to apply for individual state licensure.
COMPONENTS OF NURSING PRACTICE
ACTS
All nursing practice acts include two essential components. First each includes
statements that refer to protecting the health and safety of the public. The second
is protection of the title of RN. This protection is ensured by describing those
individuals covered by the regulations and those excluded from the act. The legal
title, registered nurse, is reserved for those meeting the requirements to practice
nursing in the state. A section of each nursing practice act describes the
requirements for licensure. An initial requirement
is graduation from high school and an accredited nursing
program.
ENTRY INTO PRACTICE
Each nursing practice act includes the requirements and procedures necessary for initial
entry into nursing practice. There are several steps necessary in obtaining a license to
practice nursing. Candidates for licensure must submit evidence of graduation as defined by
each state. Frequently a transcript of course work, a diploma or letter from the dean of the
program attesting to the graduation of the applicant is necessary.
A temporary permit may be available for nurses moving from one state to another. The
process of obtaining a license in another state is to apply for licensure by endorsement.
Nurses licensed in one jurisdiction apply for licensure in a second jurisdiction by submitting
a letter to the second state board of nursing. Typically evidence for the new license is similar
to that for initial licensure. In addition, proof of the nurse's current license to practice will be
required.
RENEWAL OF LICENSURE
In addition to outlining requirements for initial licensure, each nursing
practice act includes information on renewal of licensure requirements. These
regulations define the period; a license is valid and any additional
requirements for renewal of licensure. All nurses are expected to remain
competent to practice through various means of continuing
[Link] of Nursing Registration is mandatory to keep the nursing
license valid. Nursing registration is almost the same in each state.
The nursing registration and renewal has to be done from the respective
nursing council of each state. Nursing registration is valid only for five years.
You need to renew your nursing registration within five years. Nursing
council of each state offers online application form through which nurses can
apply for renewal of registration.
