Sec. 1. Notwithstanding any other powers, a party state nurse
licensing board may do the following:

costs of investigations and disposition of cases resulting from
any adverse action taken against the nurse.

witnesses and the production of evidence from another party
state shall be enforced in the latter state by a court with
jurisdiction, according to the practice and procedure of that
court applicable to subpoenas issued in proceedings pending
before it. The issuing authority shall pay any witness fees,
travel expenses, mileage, and other fees required by the service
statutes of the state where the witnesses and evidence are
located.
(3) Issue cease and desist orders to limit or revoke a nurse's
authority to practice in the state.
(4) Adopt uniform rules as provided for in IC 25-23.3-8-3.
