Discussion on Professional Nursing and State-Level Regulations

According to the Bosse (2017), the Nursing regulations can be defined as the governmental oversight that is used for the nursing practices in all the states and countries. The nursing regulation is defined for the health profession that reduces the risk of harm to the public when it is practised by someone incompetent, less experienced, and not sufficient to identify unqualified health care. The professional nursing regulations are vulnerable for the practitioners (Bosse, et al., 2017). The nurse practice act for all the countries typically define the boundaries of scope, identification of titles and licenses, protect the titles, and composition of power in the board of nursing.

The board of nursing is the authority of providing administration rules and regulations. It is used for the specific rules and regulations that can be consistent with the Nurse Practice Act. The act is designed to enforce and effect the nursing process. In the development process of rules and regulations, the comments of the public are also considered and provide value to the participants in the decision-making process (Bosse, et al., 2017). The National Council of state boards of nursing (NCSBN) provide all the essential information related to the practice acts in most of the states of the United States. The prime concern of the National council of state boards of nursing (NCSBN) is to provide active and regulations to the boards of nursing and counsel together on all different types of matters of common interest. The concern is to provide some affecting rules and regulation for some common interest of nursing authority. The services consider safety, welfare, public health, and development of the licensing process in the nursing sector. The regulations and state laws of boards of nursing are mentioned below,

1.      The representatives of six leading organizations in the world are members of the licensing board of healthcare regulatory. The practical documents must be designed to assist regulatory bodies and legislators.

2.      AANA state government affairs division is directly involved in the process and summarizes the regulations.

3.      The citizen advocacy centre devotes all the process to assist the public members with regulatory bodies. The policy use stator and regulatory barriers in the federal and state levels (Milstead & Short, 2019).
