September 27, 2024

The Georgia Board of Nursing will hold a meeting via Webex on Friday, September 27, 2024, to begin at 8:00 p.m. to vote on Policy 1.14 due to the declared state of emergency by Governor Kemp. Policy 1.14 allows licensed practical nurses and registered nurses who hold unencumbered licenses in other states to work in established healthcare systems in Georgia, including public health, during an emergency or disaster. The Georgia Hospital Association (GHA) and other organizations across the state of Georgia are stating there is a need for out-of-state nurses to fill nursing positions due to the effects of the storm that hit Georgia yesterday and today.
