Bill overview
This bill establishes a Nurse Licensure Compact, allowing nurses to obtain and practice licenses in multiple states without needing to meet each state’s individual requirements. It amends existing Michigan law to align with the compact, including provisions for confidential information, a streamlined licensing process, and coordinated enforcement. The compact aims to improve nurse mobility and ensure public safety by promoting uniformity in licensure standards.
