NRS 632 (Nurse Practice Act)

NRS 632, part of the Nurse Practice Act in Nevada, sets the legal guidelines for nursing practice to ensure safe, competent care. It defines what registered nurses (RNs) and licensed practical nurses (LPNs) can do, establishes licensure requirements, and outlines standards for ethical conduct. The law also grants the Nevada State Board of Nursing authority to oversee licensing, investigate complaints, and enforce discipline to protect public health.
