Illinois Nurse Licensure Compact allows nurses to practice in multiple states with a single license.
The Nurse Licensure Compact allows nurses to practice in their home state and other participating states with a multistate license. Nurses must meet specific qualifications, including passing exams and background checks. The compact aims to streamline licensure, reduce redundancies, and enhance public safety. It establishes an Interstate Commission to oversee the compact and facilitate information sharing among states. Nurses must complete continuing education and employers must provide opportunities for this. The compact does not apply to advanced practice registered nurses.
