§ 2861 Unlicensed Nursing Services Exemption

• •You can help with nursing tasks even if you're not a licensed nurse.
• •But you can't pretend to be a licensed vocational nurse if you're not.
• •If you do nursing work, don't say or act like you're a licensed nurse.

Your friend is sick, and you help take care of them by giving them medicine and checking their temperature.

You can do this to help, but you can't say you're a licensed nurse or act like one if you're not. If you do, you're breaking the law.
