Boards of Nursing (BONs) are state governmental agencies that are responsible for the regulation of nursing practice. More than 100 years ago, state governments established BONs to protect the public’s health and welfare by overseeing and ensuring the safe practice of nursing. BONs achieve this mission by outlining the standards for safe nursing care and issuing licenses to practice nursing.
Complaints regarding the programs and practice of the Rutgers School of Nursing may be sent to the New Jersey Board of Nursing.
