Boards of Nursing (BONs) exist in all 50 states, American Samoa, the District of Columbia, the Virgin Islands, Guam, and the Northern Mariana Islands. BONs aim to protect the public through the regulation of nursing practice. These boards highlight state/region regulations that all nurses must follow to get licensed.

These regulations may differ from one state/region to another. It’s essential to compare these regulations. This helps nurses who may require licenses in multiple areas or states. It also helps share insights that can be useful in case of future changes in a state/region.

To Prepare:

• Review the learning resources and analyze the mission of BONs in protecting the public through nursing practice regulation.
• Analyze how key regulations can affect nursing practice.
• Evaluate the critical regulations for nursing practice in your state/region’s BON and those of one other board.
