The Connecticut Board of Examiners for Nursing is established under Statutes and Regulations- Connecticut General Statutes Chapter 378 – Nursing (Nurse Pra
ctice Act). The Board sets standards for courses for the training of practical nurses to be offered in high schools and vocational schools for students who have not yet acquired a high school diploma. Students who satisfactorily complete courses approved the board be given credit for each such course toward the requirements for a practical nurse's license. The Board keeps a list of all nursing programs and all programs for training licensed practical nurses that are approved by it. The Board also hears and decides matters concerning suspension or revocation of licensure, adjudicate complaints filed against practitioners licensed and impose sanctions where appropriate.
