§1020. Implementation; rulemaking
The Louisiana State Board of Nursing and the Louisiana State Board of Practical Nurse Examiners shall:
(1)Ensure application and enforcement of the nurse licensure compact as it applies to their respective licensees and licensees from compact states performing nursing services under each board's respective practice act.
(2)Develop a reporting system to collect aggregate data from employers on the number and geographic representation of nurses and licensed practical nurses employed in Louisiana who are practicing nursing or licensed practical nursing pursuant to a multi-state license as determined by the respective licensing board in properly promulgated rules. The report shall be completed prior to a nurse or licensed practical nurse furnishing any nursing services in this state. Failure of an employer to submit this data to the board shall not be a basis for disciplinary action against or restriction of the multi-state license of any nurse or licensed practical nurse.
(3)Develop a voluntary reporting system in which nurses holding a multi-state license under the nurse licensure compact and who engages in the practice of nursing or licensed practical nursing in Louisiana voluntarily provide their addresses and other workforce-related data as determined by the respective licensing board in properly promulgated rules. Failure to voluntarily provide this information shall not be a basis for disciplinary action against or restriction of the multi-state license of any nurse or licensed practical nurse.
(4)Promulgate rules and regulations necessary to implement the provisions of this Part in accordance with the Administrative Procedure Act.
