The current licensing system keeps scab nurses out of states with labor disputes. This is a velvet glove veiled over a steel fist--union busting

Boards of nursing are government agencies that are responsible for the regulation of nursing practice for the goal of protecting the public. NCSBN and boards of nursing work to clearly and fully communicate goals, initiatives and policies.

We encourage you to learn more about how NCSBN and boards of nursing work for public protection at ncsbn.org. Also visit your board of nursing website to learn more about the regulation of nursing practice in your state.
