Nursing sans frontières: a three year case study of multi-state registration to support nursing practice using information technology.

Objective: To highlight the registration issues for nurses who wish to practice nationally, particularly those practicing within the telehealth sector.

Design: As part of a national clinical research study, applications were made to every state and territory for mutual recognition of nursing registration and fee waiver for telenursing cross border practice for a period of three years. These processes are described using a case study approach.
