SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)

Health professions; nursing. Provides an exemption from the nursing licensure requirements for a period of thirty days pending licensure in Virginia for nurses holding a current unrestricted license in Canada whose training was obtained in a nursing school in Canada where English was the primary language and requires the Board of Nursing to issue licenses by endorsement to applicants who hold current unrestricted licenses in Canada whose training was obtained in a nursing school in Canada where English was the primary language and who have passed the Canadian Registered Nurses Examination (CRNE). Current law already provides for licensure by endorsement for nurses licensed in other states, the District of Columbia, and any U.S. possession or territory if the applicant meets the qualifications required of nurses in the Commonwealth.
