Nurse served on national council for licensing exam
Quanna Batiste, director of ambulatory care nursing with the UCLA Health System, was selected to serve on the panel for the National Council of State Boards of Nursing licensure examination (NCLEX) held Feb. 24-26 in Chicago. Batiste was one of six nurses from across the nation selected for the voluntary assignment. She was nominated on the basis of her clinical specialty and nursing expertise.All nurses in the United States and four U.S. territories must take the NCLEX. The licensing exam identifies those candidates who demonstrate minimal competence to practice nursing at the entry level. Passing the exam is one of the requirements necessary for attaining a nursing license.
Batiste, a registered nurse, also holds an M.S. degree in nursing and health care systems management.
