Multistate Licensure
Ohio has joined the Nurse Licensure Compact (NLC), which goes into effect on January 1, 2023.
Whether you’re a veteran nurse or a recent graduate, getting your multistate license (MSL) means you can expand your care and drive your career forward. And if you’re an employer, the NLC enables you to quickly hire qualified nurses and grow your staff.

Join Us As We Care Beyond Boundaries
The NLC allows a nurse to hold one MSL in their primary state of residence while practicing virtually or over state lines in 37 other compact states across the country. Learn more by watching our informational video.
