  • Summary

  • On episode 399 of The Nurse Keith Show nursing and healthcare career podcast, Keith interviews Jim Cleghorn, Director of Member Engagement and Government Affairs at the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) regarding the Nurse Licensure Compact (NLC) and its direct impact on nurses' careers and available opportunities. As the NCBSN website states, "The NLC increases access to care while maintaining public protection at the state level. Under the NLC, nurses can practice in other NLC states, without having to obtain additional licenses." At the time of this recording, there were 37 states and two other jurisdictions (Washington, D.C. and Guam) signed on, with a number of other new members pending (Pennsylvania, Ohio, and the U.S. Virgin Islands). If you want to understand the history, impact, and future of the NLC, this episode is for you! Jim Cleghorn serves as the Director of Member Engagement and Government Affairs at the National Council of State Boards of Nursing in Chicago. In that role he oversees all activities related to state and federal policy and government affairs and works to expand NCSBN’s reach both nationally and globally. Jim is also responsible for all activities related to NCSBN member development and leadership succession. Prior to his work with NCSBN, Jim served as the Executive Director of the Georgia Board of Nursing from 2010-2020 and as Director of Engagement Services with CGFNS, International in Philadelphia from 2020-2022.
