I am in full support of this regulation. With increased mental health and opoid issue it is a safety concern for nurses to have their full name displayed. If there is a patient with a true concern regarding a nurse they can obtain their medical record and obtain the nurses full name. With social media and the internet, it is very easy to obtain lots of information with just a name, including address.
