1 THE ONLINE CNS APPLICATION IS NOW AVAILABLE! ONLINE APPLICATION DEADLINE: AUGUST 31, If you have already requested that documents be sent to the NCBON based on the flowchart and form requirements outlined in the initial New CNS Rule Notices of April 2015 or May 2015, please do not resend. If the NCBON requires additional information, you will be contacted. P.O. Box 2129 Raleigh, North Carolina FAX MEMO: NEW CNS RULE REQUIREMENTS TO: All North Carolina RNs who: Currently hold voluntary recognition as a Clinical Nurse Specialist (CNS) Identify themselves as a Clinical Nurse Specialist but are not currently voluntarily recognized as a CNS by the North Carolina Board of Nursing. FROM: North Carolina Board of Nursing DATE: Revised July 23, 2015 RE: New CNS Rule (21 NCAC ) Requirements - All Clinical Nurse Specialists MUST be recognized by the North Carolina Board of Nursing in order to practice as a CNS in North Carolina. Why did the CNS rules change? The North Carolina Board of Nursing's mission is to protect the public by regulating the practice of nursing. CNS is one of the four advanced practice nursing roles. The NCBON's required recognition of the CNS ensures that those providing advanced practice registered nursing services are qualified at the advanced practice level. What do the new rules mean for me? Please Read the Following Carefully. All CNSs (even those that are currently voluntarily recognized by the NCBON) must complete the online application and submit supporting documentation in order to be considered for recognition to perform advanced practice registered nursing activities as a CNS in North Carolina: Complete the online CNS application by August 31, The online application is now available at the Nurse Gateway at Submit supporting documentation immediately if not already submitted. It will take time for your school and certifying body to fulfill your requests. If your application and supporting documentation are not completed in a timely manner, the NCBON cannot guarantee recognition by October 1, 2015, and you will not be able to practice as a CNS until your completed application has been fully evaluated. Please begin that process now. What supporting documentation must be provided? The Flow Chart on Page 3 will assist you in determining what information you must provide to the NCBON in order to be considered for CNS recognition to practice as an advanced practice nurse. When will I be notified of my CNS recognition status? All CNS applications will be evaluated between July 1, 2015 and October 1, By no later than Oct 1, 2015, your application and supporting documentation will be reviewed, and you will be notified of your NCBON CNS recognition status
2 Martha Ann Harrell, Public Member Chair Jacqueline F. Ring, RN, MBA, MHA Vice-Chair Julia L. George, RN, MSN, FRE Executive Director P.O. Box 2129 Raleigh, North Carolina FAX Nurse Aide II Registry How long will I be recognized as a CNS by the NCBON before I must renew?

You will be required to renew your CNS NCBON Recognition every two years (at the time of your RN renewal). What is the fee for CNS recognition? At this time there is no fee for CNS recognition. When will my current voluntary recognition end? All voluntary recognitions will be discontinued on the date your required recognition is granted or by October 1, What if I don't meet the new requirements for required recognition as a CNS? Individuals who do not meet the new requirements will not be granted CNS recognition and will not qualify to practice as a CNS in North Carolina. See Flow Chart on Page 3-2 -
