Administrative History
The State Nurses' Examing Board was created in 1917 through an act of the State Legislature to provide for the examination and registration of graduate nurses (Session Laws of 1917, Chapter 320, Section 2). The board was composed of one physician from the State Board of Health and three graduate nurses appointed by the Governor for a term of three years. In 1949, the size of the board was increased by three additional members (Session Laws of 1949, Chapter 109, Section 2). In 1955, when the State Board of Nursing Replaced the Examining Board, it was required that three registered professional nurses be on the board (Session Laws of 1955, Chapter 91, Section 3). In 1973, governance of the Board of Nursing was transferred to the Division of Professional and Occupational Licensing within the newly created Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs (Executive Order No. 73-1).
