A nurse who wishes to practice in another state: (Select all that apply.)
a. must retake the NCLEX®-RN for that state.
b. should determine whether the state is a compact state.
c. may obtain licensure by endorsement.
d. must revoke licensure in the current state because nurses cannot be licensed in more than one state concurrently.
ANS: B, C
Correct:
b. If the state is a member of a compact state, that state has established an agreement with other states under which nurses are permitted to practice within the state without additional licensure.
c. Licensure by endorsement refers to the original program whereby nurses who are licensed in one state seek licensure in another state without repeat examination.
Incorrect:
a. The nurse is already licensed in one state and could request endorsement in another state without retaking the NCLEX®-RN.
d. The state board is authorized to revoke one's license; the nurse cannot do this. Nurses who practice in compact states are required to be licensed only in the original state of licensure.
