The National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) is a not-for-profit organization whose purpose is to provide an organization through which boards of nursing act and counsel together on matters of common interest and concern affecting the public health, safety and welfare, including the development of licensing examinations in nursing. Albert Bryan Jr. signed the NLC into law on Dec. 6, 2021, making the U.S Virgin Islands the second territory and the 39th jurisdiction to enact the NLC. The compact allows registered nurses (RNs) and licensed practical/vocational nurses (LPN/VNs) to have one multistate license, with the ability to practice in person or via telehealth, in both their home territory/state and other NLC states.    Virgin Islands Board of Nurse Licensure Chairperson Tanicia Penn, MSN, RN, commented, “Understanding the complexities and challenges with retaining nurses in the Virgin Islands, we believe that this new and exciting opportunity will positively impact our community, our nursing practice and the health care institutions.”
