Typically, when employers want to know if a nurse’s license is about to expire, they have to look it up one nurse at a time. When it comes to learning about discipline status, employers must seek out this information on their own as well.Not anymore!

With NCSBN’s Nursys e-Notify® system, institutions that employ nurses or maintain a registry of nurses, now have the ability to receive automatic licensure, discipline and publicly available notifications quickly, easily, securely and free of charge. Nursys e-Notify is an inno-vative nurse licensure notification system that automatically provides institutions licensure and publicly available discipline data as it is entered into Nursys by boards of nursing (BONs). Institutions don’t have to proactively seek licensure or discipline information about their nurses because that information will be sent to them automatically.The e-Notify system alerts subscribers when modifications are made to a nurse’s record, including changes to:

• License status;• License expirations;• License renewal; and• Public disciplinary action/resolutions and alerts/notifications.

For example, if a nurse’s license is about to expire, the system will send a notification to the institution about the expiration date. If a nurse was disciplined by a BON, his/her institution will immediately learn about the disciplinary action, including access to available documents.

Understanding Nursys®Nursys is the only national database for licensure verification, discipline for registered nurses (RNs), licensed practical/vocational nurses (LPN/VNs) and advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs). Nursys data is pushed directly from participating BONs’ database (for participating jurisdictions visit nursys.com). Nursys is live and dynamic, and all updates to the system are reflected immediately.

Through a written agreement, participating BONs have designated Nursys as a primary source equivalent database. NCSBN posts licen-sure and discipline information in Nursys as it is submitted by individual BONs. Institutions can learn more about Nursys® e-Notify by viewing an introductory video or visiting the Nursys website. For questions, contact [email protected].

CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE PRESCRIBING GUIDELINE FOR APRNSThe Drug Enforcement and Professional Practices Branch (DEPPB) developed a reference tool: Controlled Substance Prescribing Guideline for APRNs. This chart provides both generic and commercial drug names, schedule classification, prescribing limits, and comments.

Celebrating National Nurses Week

May 6 – 12, 2016The Kentucky Board of Nursing members and staff would like to recognize the American Nurses Association (ANA) celebration of National Nurses Week. It begins each year on May 6 and ends on May 12, Florence Nightingale’s birthday. We join with ANA, the Kentucky Nurses Association (KNA), and all other nursing organizations celebrating this week. We congratulate and thank the licensed practical nurses, registered nurses, and advanced practice registered nurses who strive to assure a “culture of safety” in their practice and so capably serve the citizens of the Commonwealth. In addition, the other health care team members that are licensed/credentialed by the Board, such as Dialysis Technicians and RN Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners, are also thanked for their service. The Kentucky Board of Nursing seeks to pro-mote safety in the Commonwealth as it protects the well-being of the public by development and enforcement of state laws governing the safe practice of nursing, nursing education, and credentialing.
