I support the VA BON in including CNS as APRN's. I support revising the current clinical nurse specialists regulations based upon the Consensus Model for APRN Regulations. By adopting the language of this model, the VIrginia Board of Nursing can ensure uniformity in licensure, accreditation, certification, and education to facilitate the regulation of safe and competent advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs) including clinical nurse specialists. It is long overdue in Virginia. Thank you for your consideration.
