LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

AB 2679, as introduced, Blanca Rubio. Approved nursing schools.

Existing law, the Nursing Practice Act, establishes the Board of Registered Nursing within the Department of Consumer Affairs and sets forth its powers and duties relating to the licensure and regulation of registered nurses. Existing law requires the board to prepare and maintain a list of approved schools of nursing within the state whose graduates are eligible to apply for a license to practice nursing.

This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to those provisions.
