Rhode Island Will be a Compact State

July 10, 2023, Rhode Island officially became the 41st state to pass legislation and join the Nurse Licensure Compact (NLC) and will be implemented January 2024. Soon if you're licensed in Rhode Island, you can now work in the other 40 states in the compact through a much simpler and quicker approval process.
