Just out of curiosity...........what do all of you think about the feasibility of there being a National Nursing License, for RN's?
What would some of the "pros" and "cons" be?
I live and work in Minnesota and if I'm not mistaken (correct me if I'm wrong because I haven't really researched it thoroughly), but we can work in North and South Dakota, and Wisconsin on our Minnesota License, without having to be licensed in those states.
I am licensed in seven states because I was married to a "Nomad" for twenty years (divorced now thank God).........but only keep my Minnesota License active.
It just seems to me that we could be issued a National License because the standards for licensure are comparable state by state, are they not?
It would sure make it easier for all of us as a profession because of our mobile society.
Interested to hear feedback from all of you.
