Health occupations: nurses; evaluation of foreign trained registered nurses; modify. Amends sec. 17213 of 1978 PA 368 (MCL 333.17213).

Summary

The bill lets the Michigan Board of Nursing license nurses who graduated from nursing programs outside the United States, as long as they prove their education is comparable and pass the required exam. It also streamlines licensing for nurses already licensed in another U.S. state (or a Canadian province before 2012) by accepting proof of that license, and waives the education verification if they have five years of clean practice.
