Expanding Access to Care & Nurse Mobility Across the U.S. Why should our state join the Nurse Licensure Compact (NLC)? Dramatic changes are occurring in health care delivery. It is common for patients to travel across state lines for health care. Nurses often provide care across state borders both physically and electronically.

Unlocking Access to Nursing Care Across the Nation Issue Modern health care delivery requires that nursing care, today and in the future, be dynamic and fluid across state boundaries, but the 100 year-old model of nurse licensure is not flexible, adaptable nor nimble enough to best meet this need. Solution The Nurse Licensure Compact (NLC) increases access to care, protects patient safety and reduces costs while supporting state-of-the-art health care delivery – for today and in the future. The NLC allows for registered nurses (RNs) and licensed practical/vocational nurses (LPN/VNs) to have one multistate license, with the privilege to practice in their home state and other NLC states without obtaining additional licenses.

When driving in other states, you must know and obey that state’s laws (rules of the road). 3. While driving in other states, if you violate the state’s law, the state can remove your driving privileges in that state. 4. When you change your primary state of residence (relocate) to another compact state, you need to apply for that state’s driver’s license. You can drive on your former license for a certain number of days (depending on the state).
